Let’s fight corruption despite limitations in the law – GII Boss on Cecilia Dapaah’s case
3 May 2024
The Executive Director of the Ghana Integrity Initiative (GII), Mary Addah, has asked state agencies including the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) and the Attorney-General’s Department, responsible for fighting corruption, to work to tackle the menace despite the limitations in the law.
She noted that aspects of the anti-corruption laws such as the one on ‘he who alleges must prove’ makes the work of the anti-corruption agencies difficult but that should not stop them from acting.
Her comments come after the Office of the Attorney-General advised EOCO not to initiate any move to investigate money laundering in the dealings of the former Sanitation Minister, Cecilia Dapaah.
