President John Dramani Mahama has directed the Attorney General to promptly investigate the findings of the Operation Recover All Loots (ORAL) committee, which officially presented its report on Monday. The President expects the Attorney General to initiate the investigation without delay, marking a significant step in the government’s efforts to combat corruption and recover looted state assets.
The ORAL committee, established in December 2024, has identified 2,417 complaints of suspected corruption, with an estimated recovery value of $21.19 billion. The committee’s findings could lead to substantial recoveries, potentially reshaping public trust in the government.
President Mahama’s directive to the Attorney General underscores his administration’s commitment to transparency and accountability. The investigation is expected to pave the way for more stringent anti-corruption measures, fostering a culture of accountability in Ghana.
The President’s instruction to the Attorney General is a clear indication of his determination to address corruption and recover looted state assets. As the investigation unfolds, Ghanaians will be watching closely to see how the government tackles this critical issue.
