A panty waste?

bro even the sanitation minister?

Am a Ghanaian working in Saudi Arabia. Such issues makes us forgot about the country we came from ahhh it's really wicked witch act. And we will later go to imf for loan while minister is hiding such huge amount in the room😮😮

It's called being an african

We need 2nd JJ Rawlings in Ghana, Asantes downfall of Ghana since independence npp party witches and downfall of Ghana

One million dollars is just a drop in the bucket when compare to the many more millions of dollars hidden by corrupt government officials. Maybe Ghana would no longer need IMF bailout if all stollen money were recuperated.

The governing New Patriotic Party has systematically impoverished Ghanaians. I wonder the amounts being hoarded by the other ministers. It's really sad 😢.

The minister has exposed herself!!

I miss the former president j j

Under akuffo addo even the central bank has been sold to his own family members so even 6trillion has missing from Central Bank

Bribery and corruption can have a significant detrimental impact on the future of Ghana. Here are some potential effects:

1. Economic Implications: Corruption diverts resources away from productive sectors of the economy, leading to economic inefficiency and slower economic growth. It reduces foreign direct investment, as businesses may be hesitant to invest in a country where corruption is prevalent. This, in turn, can hinder job creation and lead to stagnation in various sectors, affecting the overall prosperity of the country.

2. Social Inequality: Corruption often leads to unequal distribution of resources and opportunities. It undermines social justice by enabling a small group of individuals to amass wealth and power, while the majority struggle to access basic services such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure. This can deepen social divisions, erode trust in institutions, and contribute to social unrest.

3. Weakening Governance and Institutions: Corruption erodes the credibility and effectiveness of public institutions, including law enforcement, judiciary, and regulatory bodies. When corruption becomes systemic, it undermines the rule of law and weakens governance structures. This can create a cycle of impunity and discourage investments in sectors that rely on accountable institutions, such as the justice system, which is necessary for maintaining a stable and functioning society.

4. Loss of Human Capital: Corruption can lead to a brain drain, as talented individuals may seek opportunities elsewhere due to limited prospects or the perception that meritocracy is undermined. This can hamper economic development and limit the potential for innovation, growth, and sustainable development in the long term.

5. Undermining Public Trust: Corruption erodes public trust in government institutions and the leadership, which can have far-reaching consequences for social cohesion, political stability, and democratic processes. When citizens perceive that their leaders are corrupt, they may feel disengaged from the political system, leading to disillusionment and potentially creating openings for extremist ideologies or political movements.

To combat bribery and corruption, it is crucial for Ghana to have strong anti-corruption measures, enforce laws and regulations, improve transparency, promote accountability, and strengthen institutions. Additionally, fostering a culture of integrity and ethics and promoting citizen engagement and awareness can help address corruption at its roots.

Haha try to be victim and turns out youre the perpetrator. If sanitation minister can have $1M around then imagine what the finance minister has stolen.

Doom and gloom is all I see and hear from this platform on Africa. Why is there any thing positive happening on the continent or it is being overlooked.

Addressing corruption effectively often requires a coordinated effort across various branches of government, including the judiciary. Ensuring that the highest court in Ghana deals effectively with corruption cases is crucial for upholding the rule of law and promoting accountability. Continued efforts to strengthen judicial processes and expedite corruption cases can significantly impact the fight against corruption within the country.
