The National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, has reaffirmed the party’s commitment to holding officials of the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration accountable for alleged corruption.
During his speech in Somanya, Eastern Region, Asiedu Nketia emphasized that the NDC government will vigorously pursue accountability from current government appointees and officials of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
“If you are a thief or a criminal, the alternative should indeed be scary. Under our government, no corrupt individual will go unpunished,” he warned.
His statement follows a recent announcement by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), which declared former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta a fugitive as part of ongoing corruption investigations.
Asiedu Nketia assured Ghanaians that the NDC will take all necessary steps to ensure justice prevails.
“Wherever Ken Ofori-Atta is hiding, we will find him. He must avail himself for questioning on multiple cases. Any former official involved in corruption will be forced to face the law.”
He further stressed that an NDC government will enforce tougher measures to fight corruption, ensuring that no guilty official—past or present—escapes justice.
“We will tighten the noose on corruption, and even those within this government engaging in corrupt activities will not go scot-free,” he affirmed.
