North Tongu Lawmaker Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has accepted his appointment as chair of the team to implement Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He says he will lead with a sense of duty, integrity and patriotism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI humbly accept to chair this ORAL Team with a profound sense of duty, integrity and patriotism. We are grateful to President-elect H.E. John Mahama for the confidence reposed in us. For God and Country. Ghana First,\u201d he wrote on his X page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The President-elect, John Mahama\u2019s Transition team had announced that as a preparatory measure towards the rollout of the promise to recover proceeds of corruption and hold persons responsible for such corruption accountable when he assumes office, a Team has been set up to receive and gather information from members of the public and other sources, on suspected acts of corruption<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Team comprises the following individuals<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Hon Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwah \u2013 Chairman<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Mr Daniel Domelovo-Former Auditor-General<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. COP(Rtd.) Nathaniel Kofi Boakye<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Mr Martin Kpebu-Private Legal Practitioner<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Mr Raymond Archer-Investigative Journalist.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cAnti-corruption, with Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) as a major plank, formed a core part of H.E John Mahama\u2019s policy platform in the 2024 campaign and he intends to hit the ground running on these commitments,\u201d a statement issued by the transition team said<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Earlier, Joyce Bawa Mogtari, Special Aide to Ghana\u2019s President-elect, John Dramani Mahama, has given a harsh warning to anybody implicated in corruption charges under the present NPP administration to brace themselves for the full force of the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The ORAL aims to retrieve all revenues linked to corruption claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The special aide made these remarks in an interview with Channel One TV on Tuesday, December 10, as she underlined the new government\u2019s commitment to accountability and budgetary management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    She stated that the most important thing Ghanaians anticipate from the new NDC government is to heal the economy and feed the people, as they are hungry. \u201cWe need to revive the economy, and everything else will thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cGhanaians have given Mahama a massive win to deliver. \u201cWe need to recover the looted resources and complete all abandoned projects,\u201d Joyce Bawa Mogtari stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    He (Mahama) understands that the youth want to see something different. People want to see respect. People expect leaders to accept accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cYou are aware that the IPPs currently owe a significant amount of money. Why are they owed money? This was a pretty clear intervention, and if they were paid, we would have power. But we haven\u2019t been informed that they have ceased exporting power. So there has to be something wrong. There must be a reason they aren\u2019t paying. \u201cWhy is investment at an all-time low?\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cThere has to be a reason why. Why are we told we have 12,000 kilometers of roads but haven\u2019t seen them anywhere? Why are we told that little is being done to combat corruption?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cLook, we got a new finance minister. What efforts has he made, and what has he informed you he is doing to boost the economy? What actions has he announced to boost the economy?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cNothing. So the entire country is in limbo, yet people continue to spend. And if we hadn\u2019t won the elections, they would have taken the rest of the money and placed it in their wallets before going home to sleep.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
