Deputy Bono Regional Communications Officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Eric Adjei has said that corruption is now an appetizer for members of the ruling government.

"It is sad that members of the ruling government have embraced corruption as an appetizer, all because their leader will vindicate them when the need arises," he said.

According to him they (NDC) made sure guilty individuals in their administration were prosecuted especially public appointees according to the rule of the law, but "members of the current government have given the go ahead by the President to be involved in scandalous actions, since he always comes in to clear his own of not being guilty whiles investigations surrounding corrupt practices are ongoing".

As a panelist on UTV's 'Adekye Nsroma' newspaper discussion segment, the NDC Communicator blamed government for the increase in COVID-19 confirmed cases especially in Obuasi because "President Akufo-Addo lifted the partial lockdown ban based on political science findings and not medical science basis as claimed".

Eric Adjei urged Ghanaians to be vigilant on procedures taken by the EC towards he upcoming elections to prevent the nation from any destruction.
