We must all play our part – Mahama calls for united fight against corruption


President John Mahama has issued a firm warning against corruption, emphasizing that Ghana will no longer tolerate financial mismanagement and the looting of state resources.

His comments follow the submission of a report by the Operation Recover All Loots (ORAL) team, a task force he set up to trace and reclaim assets allegedly misappropriated under former President Akufo-Addo’s administration.

“For those who think they can defraud the state and escape justice, let this serve as a strong warning: Ghana is no longer a safe haven for corruption,” Mahama declared, reinforcing his administration’s commitment to holding individuals accountable.

His stance has reignited discussions about corruption in Ghana, a long-standing issue that has eroded public trust and hindered national development.

While Mahama has promised a crackdown on corruption, many Ghanaians remain cautious, given the country’s history of unfulfilled anti-corruption pledges across different administrations.

However, Mahama assured citizens that his government was determined to create a culture of accountability.

“To those who stand for integrity, accountability, and the rule of law, I assure you that this government remains your steadfast partner in building a nation where honesty and hard work are rewarded.”

With Ghana’s fight against corruption often hindered by political interference and weak enforcement, Mahama’s call for collective action suggests a shift in approach.

“We must all play our part—citizens, civil society, the media, and public officials alike. Together, we will build a Ghana that is just, transparent, and prosperous for generations to come,” he urged.
