Yves Hanson-Nortey has expressed confidence in Ghana's existing anti-corruption mechanisms, stating that the country already has enough tools to curb the menace.
The former Tema Central MP emphasized that institutions like the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO), the Criminal Investigations Department (CID), and the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) are capable of handling corruption cases effectively. "For me, anything that would fight corruption, I support it, whatever shape or form it takes, in so far as it is legal and falls within the confines of the law," he said on Good Morning Ghana show on Metro TV monitored by MyNewsGH.
Hanson-Nortey pointed out that corruption in Ghana is closely linked to the cost of politics, with political parties often seeking illegal means to fund expensive campaigns.
He highlighted the pattern of illegal activities that spike around election periods. "There's always a trend-when we are getting closer to elections, you hear of galamsey on the rise, fertilizer smuggling, gold smuggling.
