Former President John Dramani Mahama has reiterated his commitment to investigating and prosecuting corrupt officials if elected President in the upcoming election.
Speaking at his Governance Forum in Accra on Thursday, October 31, 2024, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate promised to investigate and prosecute corrupt officials, relying on the expertise of both local and foreign investigators to achieve the desired results.
He also promised to set up a state assets registry to handle corruption cases more efficiently.
“I’m affirming my commitment to root out the canker of corruption. One of our tools to combat corruption, and make it a high-risk endeavour for any person, Operation Recover All the Loot, will investigate, and prosecute the persons involved in corruption, using both local and foreign expertise to achieve this objective.
“Closely linked to ORAL will be legislation to prohibit political appointees, politically exposed persons and all serving public officials from purchasing state assets. We shall address the detrimental phenomena of state capture by establishing a state asset registrar.”
