Election 2024: Vote against perceived corrupt candidates – Domelevo

Former Auditor General Daniel Domelevo has called on Ghanaians to take a firm stand against the rising levels of corruption by voting out corrupt leaders in the upcoming December 7 elections.

Speaking at an event organized by Crusaders for Change in Koforidua, the Eastern Regional capital, Domelevo expressed deep concern over the increasing number of corruption cases across the country.

He urged the electorate to use their votes as a tool for accountability, ensuring that leaders perceived to be corrupt are not returned to office.

He emphasized the critical role of citizens in fighting corruption, noting that their votes can shape the direction of the country’s leadership and governance.

“The generation ahead of us is a very wicked generation. They want to take everything today and what will even come tomorrow. And we must stop it. You have enough knowledge and power to say to our leaders no, enough is enough.

“Unfortunately, we are in an elation year. Let’s say enough is enough for anybody we think is corrupt. Not only at the presidential level but even at the parliamentary level, you know them. Let’s make sure that we stop them in their tracks. Otherwise, you and I have no future.”

Domelevo also urged the judiciary to exhibit professionalism in its adjudication of electoral disputes.

“My last admonition goes to the judiciary, especially the Supreme Court. I would like to admonish them that they should heed the advice given to them by the Minister of National Security, Honourable Kan-Dapaah.

“He told them that if their interpretation is tilted so much towards us [NPP] all the time, it will create a problem. It is creating problems. And I heard one quote, I don’t know how true it is.

“I read somewhere that the former Chief Justice Sophia Akuffo said the Supreme Court is now very predictable. If she actually said it, then I could not agree more with her because most of you knew what the results were going to be before it came. I don’t think we need that. We need professionalism.”
