The level of corruption, rot in gov't is legendary – Sammy Awuku

Aspiring National Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party, Sammy Awuku, appears disgusted over the deep-seated corrupt practices that characterise the governing National Democratic Congress.

Sammy Awuku wonders why the incumbent government is finding it difficult to combat corruption in the country.

According to him, the level of corruption in the NDC government under the leadership of President John Dramani Mahama has suddenly become "legendary", adding that it has left Ghanaians hopeless.

The Mahama government has since the year 2013 recorded a series of corrupt practices which critics say is alarming.

Ranging from judgement debt cases (which begun under the Mills-Mahama administration) to the rot at the Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Agency (GYEEDA) among others, Sammy Awuku believed that the government has nothing to offer the Ghanaian citizenry.

In his view, “any inheritance that John Mahama and the NDC can bequeath to Ghana is when they are voted out of power and Ghanaians say ‘Never again'."

Speaking on "National Agenda" on Oman FM, Sammy Awuku stated that, "the level of corruption and rot in this government is legendary" and was cynical about efforts to curb it.
