Chairperson of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) Team, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has assured the public that the body will operate with fairness and transparency in its efforts to investigate suspected acts of corruption.
“We are not going to witch-hunt anyone,” he stated, emphasizing that the team’s primary focus is to address corruption and recover stolen public funds, rather than pursue any political vendettas.
Speaking on Joy News’ PM Express with Evans Mensah on Wednesday, December 18, he stressed that the ORAL Team is focused solely on gathering evidence of corruption and handing over findings to the appropriate institutions.
Outlining the ORAL Team’s mandate, Mr. Ablakwa clarified that the team does not have the authority to prosecute.
“Our parameters are clear.
We are tasked with gathering evidence, analyzing data, and coordinating the receipt of reports from the public.
“Based on this, we will produce a comprehensive report and hand it over to the relevant institutions for action,” he said.
He explained that the team’s work is limited to the transitional period and emphasized the importance of their role in building a robust foundation for the incoming administration.
