The Crusaders Against Corruption, Ghana, has called on President John Dramani Mahama to prioritize the enforcement of Article 286 of the 1992 Constitution, which mandates certain public officeholders to declare their assets and liabilities before assuming office.
In a statement issued on January 21, the group said, “For the avoidance of doubt, Article 286 (1) of the 1992 Constitution states that “a person who holds a public office mentioned in clause (5) of this Article shall submit to the Auditor-General a written declaration of all property or assets owned by or liabilities owed by, him whether directly or indirectly.”
Crusaders Against Corruption, Ghana, has urged the President to ensure strict adherence to this legal requirement by swearing into office only those public officials who have declared their assets and liabilities.
