“I WILL NOT SET ASIDE DUE PROCESS IN THE FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION” – President Akufo-Addo

Reacting to this concern at the 2023/2024 annual general conference of the Ghana Bar Association on the theme: “Ensuring High Standard and Integrity in Public Life: The Role of Legal Profession,” the president noted that it is unwise to pass judgement on his subjects before investigations are concluded.

“There are some who refuse to accept my method of proceeding and characterise me as a clearing agent. Because for them, the mere allegation without more is enough to merit the condemnation of the public officer,” he said.

According to the president, he will continue to chart this course despite being labelled a “clearing agent” by some critics.
