Throughout Ghana's political history, numerous scandals that have rocked politicians have captured national attention and dominated public discourse, largely due to the seriousness and far-reaching implications of some of these incidents.

One such category of scandals involves foreign currencies, particularly the US dollar, which has often sparked intense public debate and scrutiny.

While some of these political scandals fade quickly without attracting significant public scrutiny, others, like those relating to the US dollar stand out as exceptions - often persisting in national conversation for extended periods, prompting official sanctions, and in more serious cases, resulting in the dismissal of those complicit in such matters.
