Government rated high in fight against corruption
Sekondi constituency MP Andrew Egyapa Mercer has rated government high in fight against corruption.
Corruption appears one of Ghana’s most tackled social issues by governments but still drain the country’s development after failing to find sharp measures to curb the act.
In the last few years, curbing corruption has been heavily talked in the public space in what appears a progress in attempt to stop taking corruption having many Ghanaians failed to mention it in public places, and not to say of a country official talking about it.
The dimension of interest of its discussion has been key in public acceptance with argument over the fight against corruption ideally offered special public applause.
Member of Parliament for Sekondi constituency, Andrew Egyapa Mercer has praised government for its consistency in battling corruption.
According to the MP, government may not have completely eliminated corruption but was more than halfway to achieving it.
Speaking on Accra-based Joy News today, he indicated that he would score government 8/10 in its fight against corruption.
He indicated that though the processes may be slow; government is dealing with the issues as they come.
He explained that the fight against corruption was about how institutions are strengthened.
Referencing the former Auditor General, Daniel Domelovo, he recounted that the former Auditor General himself confessed the amount of resources government had put into such institutions.
He added that institutions like the Office of the Special Prosecutors will become a formidable force against corruption when it is well grounded.
“I will rate the government’s fight against corruption 7/10. In fact 8/10 because you see for me it’s the institutions and how you strengthened them.
“In fact, I recall the former Auditor General Daniel Domelovo, he himself, his own confession in respect to the resources that had been given to the Audit Service by this administration, CHRAJ, Office of the Special Prosecutor and I was part of the formulation of the Special Prosecutors Act because I am on the Constitutional and Legal Affairs Committee.
“That institution when it is firmly set up and established and begins to assert itself is clearly going to impact the level of the corruption that we see and complain about today,” he asserted.
