The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, has assured the public that, if elected in the 2024 polls, he will not engage in selective targeting in the fight against corruption.

Mr Mahama emphasised that any form of discrimination in addressing the menace would undermine his efforts.

He pledged to direct his anti-corruption focus not only on political opponents but also on his prospective government.

The world marked this year’s anti-corruption day over the weekend. As I reiterated on Thursday at the Ghana CEO Network Business Coalition, my administration would wage a strong fight against corruption to save money for reinvestment in the economy.

In a post on X on Monday, December 11, Mahama reiterated his commitment to vigorously combat corruption in the country.

“The world marked this year’s anti-corruption day over the weekend. As I reiterated on Thursday at the Ghana CEO Network Business Coalition, my administration would wage a strong fight against corruption to save money for reinvestment in the economy.”

“The sword of my fight against corruption will cut across – against past government officials, officials of the incumbent administration, civil and public servants, businesses, government suppliers, etc. if they fall foul of the law.”

“Corruption is a canker that eats away at society. I am steadfast and resolute in my determination to fight corruption at all levels. Today is another opportunity to reaffirm my commitment to fighting and tackling corruption head-on,” he posted.
