Asiedu Nketia the Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has told Ghanaians to trust the process as the government work to prosecute corrupt officials under the Akufo-Addo Bawumia government.
The NDC Chairman asserted that the John Mahama government is working to pin down corrupt appointees.
According to Asiedu Nketia, some appointees who are being investigated claimed they cannot be arrested because after four months nothing has been done.
Speaking on Accra-based Accra FM, he stated, “I’ve heard that our people are saying the ORAL process is slow. Even some of the appointees who are being investigated say they can’t be arrested because after four months nothing has been done.
But I will urge them to trust the process we are engaged in and be rest assured that we will crack the whip and deal with all corrupt appointees in the previous government,” Asiedu Nketia added.
On February 10, 2025, the ORAL team submitted their final report to President John Mahama, who has since directed the Attorney General for further actions.
The chairman of Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) and Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa revealed that with just 36 cases, Ghana can potentially recover $ 20.49 billion in stolen state resources.
President John Mahama also stated every pesewa recovered from Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) will be channelled back into national development.
Meanwhile, Daniel Domelevo the former Auditor-General has called on Ghanaians to be a little bit patient with the Operation Recover All Loots reports.
According to Daniel Domelevo, Ghanaians have been quizzing when there is going to be an arrest and prosecution.
He asserted that it is premature for people to call for arrest and prosecution because all the ORAL team did was gather information.
Additionally, Social activist and lead Convener of the FixTheCountry and Democracy Hub, Oliver Barker-Vormawor has stated if Operation Recover All Loot had arrested 250 people by now the New Patriotic Party (NPP) would not have time to make up fake cocaine rumours.
In a post on X, Oliver Barker Vormawor stated, “ If ORAL had arrested 250 people by now, they won’t have had time to be making up fake cocaine rumours. But here we are!”.
Vormawor comments come on the back of the back and forth between the government and the Ranking Member for Defense and Interior Rev Ntim Fordjour.
