The Organised Reporting and Accountability Leadership (ORAL) team, led by Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has made a bold commitment to operate without any financial burden on the state. This decision reflects their dedication to public service and their desire to ensure transparency and accountability in their work.
By forgoing salaries, allowances, and other benefits, the ORAL team is setting a high standard for integrity and selflessness. This approach aligns with their mission to support President-elect John Dramani Mahama's vision for a corruption-free administration.
The ORAL team's primary objective is to provide a platform for citizens to report suspected corruption cases for investigation. To achieve this, they will engage closely with government agencies and civil society to ensure that reported cases are thoroughly investigated and addressed.
The team's reliance on active citizen involvement is crucial to their success. By urging citizens to report instances of corruption and partner with the committee, the ORAL team is empowering Ghanaians to take ownership of the anti-corruption campaign.
The anti-corruption campaign's major plank, Operation Recover All Loots, demonstrates the team's commitment to recovering stolen funds and assets. This effort will require collaboration with various stakeholders, including government agencies, civil society, and the general public.
Overall, the ORAL team's commitment to transparency, accountability, and selflessness is a positive step towards creating a corruption-free administration in Ghana.
