Member of Parliament for South Dayi, Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor, has promised a tough stance on corruption if NDC flagbearer John Dramani Mahama wins the December general elections.
In an interview with TV3 on August 24, 2024, Dafeamekpor asserted that appointees involved in corruption will face severe consequences under a Mahama-led government.
“A new regime of accountability is coming,” Dafeamekpor said. He highlighted that the upcoming NDC manifesto will tackle major issues such as corruption, state capture, and the high unemployment rate.
“Any government appointee, be it under Akufo-Addo or Mahama, if you misconduct yourself on grounds of corruption, you will not have it easy, a new regime of accountability,” he warned.
Dafeamekpor also noted that the manifesto will focus on job creation and addressing issues that concern all Ghanaians. He recalled the NDC’s previous efforts to combat corruption, citing the dismissal of officials for corruption-related activities during Mahama’s prior term.
