Ghana Leader Sets Next Week for Report on Missing Money.
Ghana's President John Mahama said he will read a report next week about money taken from the nation. He shared this news when he met with chiefs in the Central Region during his thank-you visits.
The report comes from his team, Operation Recover All Loot, which looks for missing state money. Mahama promised to give the findings to groups that can act on them.
"The team will bring their work to me next week," Mahama said. "I will send it straight to the people who look into wrongdoing. They must find those who took what does not belong to them."
Mahama made clear that this search goes beyond the last group in power. He wants to ensure that both past and present leaders follow the rules about using state money.
"We are looking at those who just left their jobs," he said. "But the people working today must know we will check their work the same way."
He used an old saying to make his point clear: "The stick that hits Takyi will hit Baah as well." This means the same rules apply to all.
The President plans to bring new rules for people who work with state money. These rules aim to stop bad acts before they start.
Many ask if powerful people will face the law or if friends in high places might help them stay free. The answer might come when the report arrives next week.
Mahama wants to restore trust in how Ghana's money is used. His strong words show he means to act on the report's findings.
