President John Dramani Mahama has been told to merge the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), the Criminal Investigative Department (CID) and the National Security to sire a proper fight against corruption.
The Movement for Change which made the call indicated that consolidating these institutions will lead to clarity in their operations as far as corruption fight is concerned.
In addition, the group said it would define corruption-related offenses explicitly, and introduce stringent penalties for offenders, especially political appointees and public officials.
The Movement for Change also calls for compulsory asset declaration and lifestyle audits for public officials.
