The Posture and Utterances of this President shows he is NOT SERIOUS about fighting Corruption. Maybe came to office to handover STATE MINES to his brother and family members. Its very Embarassing listening to him speak at times.

Those of us who supported you to come back to power are getting disappointed in your administration. Politicians can easily lead people to hell with their wicked ways. So your administration is waiting until 2028 to pretend to fighting corruption by filing cases at the court. One of the things your appointees did when you came to power was to hire people through the back door but they claimed that the recruitment process was transparent. Four people from my family with first degrees took part in the recruitment exercise and all of them were rejected by the sham A1 test. In this modern world there’re no secret anymore whatever you do people will have a gist of it through insider information. When are you going to put pressure on your appointees to fast track the investigation into oral. How are you going to create jobs if all these monies are with the former government appointees? Dishonesty is the bane of politicians.

Nobody wants you to arbitrarily jail people, considering the gargantuan nature and levels of corruption by the previous administration where even one of their prominent insiders openly declared they are looting the country like there’s no tomorrow all the good people of Ghana wants is a special court that will sit every day to fast track their trials instead of the current legal gymnastics and delay tactics

Did you listen to the Attorney General the other day telling Ghanaians that he doesn't know where and how Ablakwa came up with that $21billion having stolen by the members of the previous government so, what fast track court are you talking about?

Also, remember what the media and NDC said about Cecilia Dapaah, and why isn't she in jail? A lazy person is the one that wishes such courts to set up to kill people due to hate.

The era where innocent humans were killed due to hate are no more, and if you are lazy and full of hate, find something to do because there are thousands of works out there to get you busy.

Ghana have seen such useless fast track court before where a Ghanaian who legally took 10,000 cedis loan from the bank was accused of corruption, tried by the fast-track court then, and was sentenced to death by firing squad. Do you want to see those days again in Ghana? Ony a fool wish for that.

Ghanaians and gobbling accusations as truths. Wake up gullible Ghanaians, false accuasations are truths. Accusing people falsely is a ploy by parties to get to power.

I forsaw this and that was the reason why I did not cast my vote in the last election because I do not believe in John Mahama and Bawumia was not an option. What we need in Ghana is a leader of the same caliber like the Ethiopian leader Dr Abiy Ahmed. A leader who dreams big and implements his vision with speed and precision. A no nonsense disciplined leader who believes in law and order and accountability.

That's no excuse, it's a failure, lack of urgency and will power Mr President.
Kuoffour and Akuffo-Addo instituted fast track courts to demonstrating urgency and seriousness.
