President John Dramani Mahama
President John Dramani Mahama has reaffirmed his unwavering support for the autonomy of Ghana’s anti-corruption organizations, promising not to meddle in existing investigations or pressure the dismissal of any cases.
During a meeting with the African Union Advisory Board Against Corruption at Jubilee House on Tuesday, May 3, the President expressed his respect for prosecutorial independence and the rule of law.
“I have told the public and assured my Attorney General and Minister of Justice that I am not going to interfere in their work.
“If the anti-corruption agencies go after anybody, I am not going to try and influence them to drop any investigation against anybody, including those who served in the previous regime, many cases of whom we are currently investigating,” President Mahama said.
