Former President John Dramani Mahama has issued a stern warning to members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) that he will personally drag them before anti-corruption bodies for investigation and prosecution if they engage in any act unbefitting of the office they will occupy.
He also repeated his resolve to hold officials of the current administration who are involved in corrupt practices to account for their actions if he becomes president again.
The flagbearer of the NDC said this while speaking at the Volta Regional House of Chief on Wednesday, January 17.
“If we do not establish fairness in our system in fighting corruption, it will overwhelm this country, A lot of times, lip service is paid to it.
“The anti-corruption institutions are fettered and are not able to dispense their mandate independently and unhindered,” John Mahama said.
He added “We will hold people in this government who have misconducted themselves accountable, but same time as we hold them accountable, people who misconduct themselves in our administration will face the full rigours of the law, the anti-corruption institutions will come after them, and I am not going to interfere in the work of these institutions if they are investigating you.”
