No one will get away with corruption under NDC govt – Asiedu Nketiah

The National Chairman of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to holding officials of the previous administration accountable for alleged corruption.

His remarks emphasize the NDC government’s unwavering stance on accountability, a key campaign promise in the lead-up to the 2024 elections.

In a video circulating on social media and sighted by Citinewsroom on Sunday, February 16, Mr. Asiedu Nketiah declared that former officials of the Akufo-Addo administration, including ex-Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, will not evade scrutiny.

“Wherever Ken Ofori-Atta is hiding, we will find him by all means. He must avail himself for questioning on multiple cases. All former officials implicated in corruption will be compelled to face the law,” he asserted.

He further emphasized that the government will enforce strict accountability measures, even within its own ranks, ensuring that no official—past or present—escapes justice if found guilty of corruption.

“We will tighten the noose on accountability, and even elements within this government who engage in corrupt activities will not go scot-free,” he added.

Critics watch closely to see how these promises of accountability and anti-corruption enforcement unfolds under the NDC government as already 2,417 complaints of suspected corruption have been submitted to the Attorney General for investigations.

The complaints, which were gathered from the public in response to the Operation Recover All Loot(ORAL) call for the public to report suspected corruption cases, were officially handed over to the president at the Jubilee House.
