Former Auditor-General, Daniel Yao Domelevo has urged President elect, John Mahama not to relent on his promise to fight corruption and other ill acts by state officials.
He wants John Mahama to immediately begin work to amend wrongdoings by the past government as soon as he is sworn into office.
“He and his team should know that there is no honeymoon for them. He and his team should hit the ground running. Fortunately, he is not a novice at this, he is been there before and knows what to do.
“I think from day one after swearing in he and his team should start work for what needs to be done to be done immediately especially the looted funds he promised us that he is going to recover. I think he must take immediate action to ensure that these monies are not taking out of the country,” Domelevo said in an interview with TV3, December 11, 2024.
He stressed that grants given to government, misuse of taxes and all other alleged corrupt activities by state officials must be dealt with under the John Mahama administration.
Speaking on John Mahama’s overwhelming victory in the 2024 elections, the former Auditor-General noted that he is pleased with the defeat of the NPP.
According to him, the outcome of the elections was a reward of accountability of Akufo-Addo’s government by Ghanaians.
“I’m happy Ghanaians have held this government accountable in the true sense of the word…I think this is fantastic,” he stated.
Domelevo added that he feels vindicated by the victory of the NDC in the 2024 elections.
Mr. Domelevo used the opportunity to congratulate President elect John Mahama for his victory.
