President Akufo-Addo has stated that his priority is to ensure that the country is rid of corruption.
Reassuring Ghanaians during a meeting with the Ghana Anti-Corruption Coalition at the Jubilee House, he revealed that his government had invested more resources in the state’s anti-corruption agencies than any other administration in the country’s history, hence would ensure those investments do not come to nothing.
