Umar Harris Applauds Attorney General’s Efforts in Corruption Fight

A member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Umar Harris, has praised the Attorney General for exposing alleged misconduct by the former CEO of the National Food Buffer Stock Company (NAFCO). He described the move as a strong step in defending public funds.

Speaking on Orange Sunrise, Mr. Harris said he fully supports the ongoing legal process. “The Attorney General is doing a great job,” he noted. “We must protect state resources.”

He questioned why such alleged financial abuses happened under previous administrations without accountability.

He believes the perpetrators assumed their misconduct would remain secret but insists public funds must never be misused.

Mr. Harris expressed hope that the current government will continue to show commitment in the corruption fight. He admitted that eliminating corruption is not an easy task. “Corruption is difficult to handle, especially in our part of the world,” he said. “But the Mahama administration will not allow anyone to misuse public money.”

He emphasized that the system must treat everyone equally. “When someone violates the rules, they must face the consequences.”

Mr. Harris urged Ghanaians to support efforts that promote transparency and fairness in national affairs. He believes accountability should guide the country’s development. “Officials must know their actions matter,” he added. “We all deserve honest leadership.”
