Deputy Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr. Justice Srem Sai, has urged Ghanaians to exercise patience as the government works to prosecute individuals implicated in corruption through the Operation Recover All Loots (ORAL) initiative.
He noted that law enforcement agencies, including the Police Service and the Bureau of National Investigations (BNI), are actively conducting investigations to ensure airtight cases.
Speaking to the media in Accra on Thursday, March 20, Dr. Srem Sai acknowledged the public’s eagerness to see prosecutions commence but stressed that due process must be followed.
“We believe that this will not happen overnight. We are engaged in serious investigations at the Attorney General’s Department, with hardworking citizens and all investigative bodies—the police, the BNI—working hard day and night to help us build a very strong docket,” he noted.
“So, bear with us. Maybe a little more patience. In a few weeks, you will see that ORAL is not just a campaign slogan but something President Mahama is determined to make happen,” he assured.
He explained that the Attorney General’s Department is diligently working to build solid cases before moving to court.
“What we are doing at the Attorney General’s Department is what we call building the dockets for these prosecutions. In as much as we know the public is eager to see action, we believe that it must be done within the framework of the rule of law,” he stated.
Dr. Srem Sai further assured the public that the Mahama administration is committed to fighting corruption and recovering stolen state funds.
The ORAL Committee, which was set up to help retrieve state funds lost through corruption, submitted its report to President Mahama at the Jubilee House on Monday, February 10.
The report contains 2,417 complaints of suspected corruption, gathered from a nationwide call for public reports.
