If successfully implemented, ORAL could be one of the biggest legacies of the incoming Mahama government.
Following the NDC’s emphatic victory in the general elections, some Ghanaians have called on the party to begin prosecuting state appointees involved in corruption-related activities under the outgoing government.
The latest to join the calls is Oheneba Nana Asiedu, a radio presenter from Kumasi-based Wontumi Radio.
According to him, John Dramani Mahama should implement his ORAL project and begin pursuing officials believed to have mismanaged state funds immediately after being sworn in as president on January 7, 2025.
Oheneba said that although he had hoped the NPP would win the election, which did not happen, he will gladly support the NDC in prosecuting corrupt officials and recovering state assets.
“We are all helping to build the country and we wished we had won power but it didn’t happen. Anybody who has mismanaged state funds and taken state property, John Mahama you don’t have 3 or 5 months to begin this. Immediately you are sworn in on January 7, 2025, go after those people on January 8, 2025,” he made this known on December 16, 2024, during his morning show.
The media personality, however, cautioned party members against standing in solidarity with any official or appointee who is prosecuted by the NDC.
He stated that he would personally address anyone who does so on his radio platform.
“Any party member who will stand in solidarity with any person who will be prosecuted will hear from me and be dealt with by me. I will dedicate time for such persons and blast them on the radio,” he warned.
