President Akufo-Addo has promised to end corruption and wastage

Ghana's government is trying to track down more than 200 vehicles missing from the fleet at the president's office, a spokesman for new President Nana Akufo-Addo has said. 

An audit, carried out after Mr Akufo-Addo's government took office last month, showed that vehicles were missing, Eugene Arhin said.

 He added that officials could only find: 

• 74 of the presidency's 196 Toyota Land Cruisers 
• 20 of the 73 Toyota Land Cruiser Prados
• 11 of the 24 Mercedes'
• two of the 28 Toyota Avalons
• two of the six BMWs. 

Ex-communication minister Omane Boamah said the allegation was false and a "convenient way for the new government to justify the purchase of new vehicles".

Mr Akufo-Addo defeated then-President John Mahama in elections in December.
