Investigative journalist, Manasseh Azure has compared former president John Dramani Mahama and President Akufo-Addo’s efforts in fighting corruption.
Speaking on Citi TV, Manasseh noted that corruption fight under Akufo-Addo’s government has been a tough as against Mahama’s era.
According to him, while Mahama albeit doing little to end corruption, gave room for anti-corruption campaigners to operate. However, Akufo-Addo does not allow anyone to talk about his corrupt government as they’ll go every means to fight you back.
“Mahama was terrible in the fight against corruption but in his era, there was that freedom to fight. Now the Auditor General is gone because he dared to touch Osafo-Maafo, Martin Amidu is gone because he dared to touch Agyapa, and those of us who are journalists, if we could be truthful to ourselves, it’s hasn’t been easy these past four years.”
“So, if you cannot fight corruption, at least allow others to do their part. If you are doing ‘Di Bi Na Me Di Bi’ allow others to do ‘Ka Bi Na Menka Bi’,” he noted.
