Vice President Professor Naana Jane OpokuAgyemang, has called on anti-corruption stakeholders, for collective efforts in the fight against corruption.
She made this call at the High Level conference on Ghana's anti-corruption architecture, themed, "Revitalising the Anti-corruption Architecture in Africa: Ghana's Accountability Journey." The forum organised by the African Union Advisory Board on Corruption (AUABC) brought together Anti-corruption stakeholders to deliberate on and provide a new National Anti-Corruption Action Plan (NACAP).
Speaking at the event on Friday June 6, Prof Opoku-Agyemang stressed that despite Ghana showing a strong performance against most Sub Saharan countries, the International Monetary Fund's assessment proves otherwise.
This has led to a loss of about GHS5 billion, as stated in the 2024 Corruption Perception Index, the Ibrahim Index of African Governance, and the 2022 Ghana Statistical Service Corruption Report.
