Speaking at the Annual Ghana Bar Association Conference in Kumasi, he stated, "I am aware that there is a deliberate, politically motivated effort to portray my government, my family, and myself as corrupt." He continued, "I will not, under any circumstance, abandon the course of due process in the fight against corruption." President Akufo-Addo noted that the opposition's attempts to label him a 'clearing agent' are retaliatory for accusations made against the John Mahama administration, some of which led to prosecutions and convictions.
He challenged the narrative by stressing that independent investigations had cleared the allegations against him. "In any event, I will leave it to the judgment of the Ghanaian public to decide whether it is preferable to be a 'clearing agent' or a government official one," he said.

Mahama's criticism of Akufo-Addo performance The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, called for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo's resignation over the depreciation of the Cedi.
Speaking at a campaign rally in Nkwabeng, a town in the Nkwanta South District, as he concluded his tour of the Bono East Region, Mahama expressed his frustration with the government's handling of the economy.

When he took office, it was GH¢4 to a dollar.
After nearly 8 years in power, the exchange rate has now risen to GH¢¢16 to a dollar. "President Akufo-Addo should have resigned long ago when the Cedi depreciated to GH¢16 per dollar.
It is difficult to see how GH¢16 to a dollar can be considered better than GH¢4 to a dollar.
Mahama contrasted the current economic situation with the state of the economy during his administration, highlighting differences in inflation and exchange rates.
