President Nana Akuffo Addo has said the government was in pole position in the fight against corruption in spite of widespread perception and accusation of failed fight against the menace.

He indicated that no appointee has been treated with kids’ gloves since no one has been spared with any form of rebuke or prosecutions.

He called on his distractors to desist from referring to him as ‘CLEARING AGENT’ of corrupt appointees in his government.

Nana Addo has openly expressed dissatisfaction with the continuous tag of failure in the fight against corruption and maintained his administration has indeed proven stubborn to corrupt individuals within his government or outside.

He made the call in Accra during the launch of National Evaluation of Anti-Corruption Action Plan.

The Evaluation of Ghana’s Maiden National Anti-Corruption Action Plan (NACAP) was launched yesterday by the President at the Banquet Hall of the Jubilee House today, 21st December 2023.

NACAP constitutes Ghana’s National Framework to drive anti-corruption activities and promote National development. It contains strategic action plans identified and agreed upon by stakeholders during nationwide consultations.

A statement issued in Accra yesterday, said the implementation of the NACAP is in response to the delivery of Ghana’s obligations under the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC), the 1992 Constitution and the President’s commitment towards fighting corruption.
