Reggae Dancehall musician Emmanuel Andrew Samini has commended the government for the swift action it has taken in dealing with corruption.
According to him, the government is doing the right thing by going after former appointees of the erstwhile administration who have allegedly stolen state funds.
Samini, a staunch supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), in an interview expressed his satisfaction with the work done by the ORAL team, the Attorney-General and investigative agencies for their actions against appointees of ex-president Akufo-Addo.
As I speak to you, currently what we are seeing – I am a happy Ghanaian, and I like the fact that people are being brought to book and justice is being served or it seems like justice is going to be served.”
I won’t sit down here and be walking on eggshells because I think that maybe a certain favourite of mine might be in trouble because there are issues,” he stated.
As a patriotic Ghanaian, Samini wished that public officials who misappropriated and stole the state funds would be made to face the full rigours of the law.
I believe that if you are put in a public office, it is your responsibility to save Ghana and keep the public purse at heart, but if you come and do anything dubious, you should be brought to book.”
The president and the judiciary system are doing a good job. So far, I would say that’s the area where I have seen a lot of action; anything else, I think, is too early to throw too much light on,” he added.
