The Member of Parliament of North Tongu and Chairman of Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL), Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has taken steps to re-submit the Protection of State Assets Bill to Parliament.
He shared this development on his X page on Wednesday, January 15, 2024, stating, "Today I initiated formal steps to re-present to the 9th Parliament our Private Member's Bill known as the Protection of State Assets Bill, which seeks to prohibit politicians and politically exposed persons from buying state assets." He also expressed optimism that the 9th Parliament would pass the bill aimed at safeguarding state lands. "This bill is definitely the permanent solution to the deleterious canker of State Capture.
I am extremely confident that it shall be passed by this 9th Parliament and President Mahama will assent to it.
It is most refreshing that we can passionately demonstrate our principled and consistent position on this matter, whether in government or in opposition.
