The largest opposition party, National Democratic Congress (NDC) has described President Akufo-Addo as the Leader and Chief Patron of Corruption in his administration and has sworn to provide evidence to prove this claim through a corruption exposure platform.
The corruption tracker series according to the National Communications Officer of the NDC Sammy Gyamfi would “help Ghanaians appreciate how the corrupt Akufo-Addo government is plundering the already constrained public purse and the extent of damage this government has inflicted on all sectors of the nation”
Sammy Gyamfi announced this when he launched the Corruption Tracker Series at the second edition of the weekly press briefing of the NDC earlier today.
The NDC Communications Officer told the press the program is in line with the opposition party’s mandate to hold government accountable and draw attention to the huge financial losses that the state has suffered as a result of the countless corruption scandals witnessed under the Akufo-Addo government.
“The NDC is deeply worried about the fact that, resources that otherwise should have gone into developmental projects in order to uplift the poor, are sadly going to line the pockets of several selfish and greedy officials of the Akufo-Addo government through graft and sleaze,” he stated.
The Nana Akufo-Addo administration rode to power on the back of a promise to eschew corruption with President assuring Ghanaians that he would not tolerate any act of corruption in his administration.
More than 3 years into his administration, the opposition NDC says corruption in the government of the “incorruptible” Nana Akufo-Addo is endemic and permeated into all sectors of the economy with the President as the Chief perpetrator.
“The Corruption Tracker Series we are launching today is to help Ghanaians appreciate how the corrupt Akufo-Addo government is plundering the already constrained public purse and the extent of damage this government has inflicted on all sectors of the nation,” the NDC said.
The NDC Communications Officer Sammy Gyamfi believes there is a need for Ghanaians to be made aware and reminded of how destructive corruption continues to be under the Nana Akufo-Addo administration.
“Through this very important program, we shall be taking pains, one after the other, to do a total and holistic recall of the numerous corruption scandals in recent time, and how President Akufo-Addo at all times, has failed to protect the public purse.”
“While at it, we shall also prove to the Ghanaian people that contrary to his self-acclaimed anti-corruption credentials, President Akufo-Addo is indeed the leader and chief patron of this notoriously corrupt administration.”
