Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
The Okyenhene, Osagyefo Amoatia Ofori Panin has lamented Ghana’s rampant corruption and how it affects common Ghanaians.
Speaking in a widely shared video that GhanaWeb was able to view, the traditional ruler claimed that people in Ghana have the false impression that riches is a measure of success, which causes them to indulge in a variety of vices in an attempt to become wealthy.
He asserted that one can never truly be considered to have achieved success in life if they amass wealth at the cost of common Ghanaians.
He continued by saying that public servants who pillage public funds and deprive Ghanaians of fundamental requirements of existence would live in infamy.
“People think success is showing you material wealth. If you have stolen money to be successful, you’re not successful. If your bank account is stained with the blood and sweat of the poor, you are not successful.
“If getting up there, you make other people poorer, you are not successful. If you dip your hands in the public till and expunge from it, monies that would build hospitals, schools and churches, pay teachers well, build bridges, to deny a child malaria treatment, you are not successful,” he said.
The Okyenhene added, “Future generations would not build a monument in your name”.
