The 2024 global Corruption Perception Index (CPI) has scored Ghana 42 out of a clean score of 100, a slight decline from the score of 43 in 2023.

The latest ranking was contained in a press release on February 11 by the Ghana Integrity Initiative (GII), the local chapter of Transparency International.

This new score when compared to the 2023 signals a setback in the country's anti-corruption efforts.

It also puts Ghana on 80th position out of 180 countries in terms of ranking.
