The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, says no political appointee in his administration will be allowed to purchase state assets.

This directive, he says, will extend to politically exposed persons and all serving public officials if he is elected in the 2024 general election.

The former President made this pledge at the launch of the party’s manifesto in Winneba on August 24, 2024.

He added that he will also wage a ruthless war against corruption by forming a taskforce which will be known as “Operation-Recover-All-Loot” (ORAL).

He also noted that he will “reopen investigations into major unresolved cases including the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election violence, 2020 election killings, unresolved murder of Ahmed Hussein-Suale and Silas Wulochamey.”

According to him, all the cases he intends to reopen occurred under the current government.

He added that the government has either refused to investigate these cases or, where investigations have been conducted, they have failed to implement the recommendations, preventing affected individuals from receiving compensation.
