ORAL: Domelevo Included in Mahama's Anti-Corruption Team.
The Transition Team of President-elect John Dramani Mahama has announced the formation of a preparatory team dedicated to advancing his anti-corruption agenda before he officially assumes office. This proactive step highlights Mahama’s determination to combat corruption and promote accountability, a central promise of his 2024 presidential campaign.
In a statement released on December 18, 2024, and signed by spokesperson Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the Transition Team outlined plans to gather intelligence on suspected cases of corruption. The team will source information from the general public as well as credible institutions to build a strong foundation for effective action.
At the heart of this initiative is “Operation Recover All Loot” (ORAL), a program designed to identify and retrieve state resources lost to corrupt practices. According to the statement, ORAL will also focus on ensuring that individuals involved in corruption face legal consequences for their actions. This comprehensive approach reflects Mahama’s commitment to restoring trust in public institutions.
Prominent anti-corruption advocate and former Auditor-General Daniel Yaw Domelevo is expected to play a significant role in this effort. Domelevo, known for his unyielding stance against corruption during his tenure, has been widely celebrated for exposing financial malpractices in state institutions. His involvement in Mahama’s anti-corruption drive has generated public optimism about the initiative’s success.
The preparatory team will work closely with legal and investigative experts to ensure that cases are handled efficiently and transparently. They will also engage with civil society organizations and other stakeholders to create a collaborative environment for tackling corruption.
Mahama’s Transition Team emphasized that the fight against corruption is not just about recovering stolen assets but also about fostering a culture of accountability. They reiterated the importance of public support, urging citizens to report any suspected cases of corruption to the preparatory team.
As Mahama prepares to take office, the establishment of this team signals a strong commitment to addressing one of Ghana’s most persistent challenges. The involvement of figures like Domelevo further underscores the seriousness of the mission to reclaim public resources and hold wrongdoers accountable.
