NPP, NDC have not fought corruption - PC Appiah Ofori
An anti-corruption crusader, Paul Collins Appiah
Ofori has accused the then New Patriotic Party
(NPP) and now National Democratic Congress (NDC)
governments of doing little to fight corruption.
The former Member of Parliament for
Asikuma-Odoben-Brakwa Constituency says “the NPP
did not fight corruption and the NDC is not
fighting corruption because all the
Auditor-General’s report says corruption is
going on in the country”.
Commenting on the perceived corruption in the
country on Onua FM’s ‘Yen Sempa’, Mr. P. C.
Appiah Ofori said “none of them fought
corruption because between 2001 and 2008 when
Kufuor was the President, there was corruption,
today is NDC and there its corruption”.
The Anti-Corruption crusader explained that
“those involved in corruption are not the
politicians but those who are working in the
public sector. They are the ones stealing the
states money but they are not prosecuted and that
is my worry”.
He said “Auditor-General reports indicts these
people but they are not prosecuted”, saying, if
they are punished, it will put fear into the
people but this is the situation where they are
not punished”.
