Corruption Bringing Ghana To Its Knees—PPP Chairman

Regional Chairman of the Progressive People's Party in the Brong Ahafo region, Daniel Mensah has decried the rising spate of corruption in Ghanaian society and says corruption is gradually bringing Ghana to its knees.

He is calling for a shift from the tunnel vision approach which directs all corruption-related issues to politicians.

Daniel Mensah who is also a regular on Techiman-based Winners FM Morning Show says corruption “”goes beyond the President or any politician. It involves the giver and the taker…if the Chief Executive or minister or a “Nana” makes a call to the Police Commander to release a suspected criminal without bail, it is corruption.”

The vocal Techiman-based politician who was speaking on Winners FM, urged Ghanaians not to lose sight of the consequences of corruption to any society. He believes corruption can bring a whole nation to its knees since it collapses all systems and institutions lose their legitimacy.

Daniel Mensah wants all and sundry involved in the fight against corruption. “Combating corruption is everyone's business. We must all put our hands on deck to eliminate this evil in society. ”
