Speaking at the Christian Service University’s 50th Anniversary public lecture, Mahama emphasized that he will not act as a “clearing agent” for corruption if elected in the upcoming December polls.
Addressing the audience on the theme “Sustainability of Democracy in Africa: The Ghanaian Experience,” the former President underscored his dedication to ensuring transparency in government operations and allowing anti-corruption agencies to function independently, free from political interference.
“I am committed to ensuring greater transparency in government operations and allowing our anti-corruption agencies to function without any political meddling,” Mahama stated. “Those who loot state resources will face the full force of the law.”
Mahama’s strong stance on anti-corruption aims to reassure voters of his dedication to good governance and accountability as Ghana approaches the crucial December elections. His promise to tackle corruption head-on and ensure accountability has resonated with many, and his commitment to independence for anti-corruption institutions is seen as a vital step in tackling the pervasive issue.
