The Executive Director of the Ghana Integrity Initiative (GII), Mary Awelana Addah, has strongly criticized public officials who have failed to declare their assets, as mandated by law.

Speaking during an interview on JoyNews' The Pulse on Monday, May 5, she argued that tougher sanctions, including outright dismissals, should be imposed on those who disregard this legal requirement.

Addah's comments come in the wake of the President's recent actions to hold public officials accountable for failing to declare their assets.

She emphasized the discretionary power the President holds to ensure compliance, stating, "I think it should have been outright dismissals for most of them, because the President has the discretionary power to do so.
