ORAL and the 24-hour economy were the most popular slogans because Ghanaians have seen the corruption under the Akufo-Addo government and want something to be done. If Mahama is unable to deal with them, it will be a blot on his government, and we will be punished for it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cORAL has come to stay, and it is important that we make it work because we promised Ghanaians. The likes of Ablakwa, COP Kofi Boakye, Martin Kpebu, Yao Domelevo, and Raymond Archer are distinguished personalities who I believe will do a great job,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>General Matheen also urged the committee not to engage in witch-hunting but rather focus on recovering stolen state resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI look at the members, and I don&#8217;t think they are men who will go after people just to show them where power lies. They are going to do a great job and ensure that corruption becomes a high-paying crime in the country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Chairperson of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) initiative, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has expressed satisfaction with the growing support and enthusiasm among non-New Patriotic Party members for the program.<\/p>\n<p>He stressed that the initiative is not a partisan effort but a national cause to protect Ghana\u2019s resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGreat to see more NPP stalwarts support Mahama\u2019s Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL).\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General Matheen has hailed President-Elect John Dramani Mahama for his anti-corruption drive Ghanaian businessman Abdul Jinsar Matheen, alias General Matheen, has hailed President-Elect John Dramani Mahama for his decision to set up a preparatory team for his flagship anti-corruption program, Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL).
