    Just go to MASLOC and find out how many MPs have taken loans and vehicles for themselves, for their relatives, and for their constituency party executives. You will be shocked and frozen to the marrow!

    Distinguish Earning from Stealing Corruption which is very different from accruing an investment related benefit. Since Ghana is for us all, that will also be stealing.

  • Papa Abouchie 9 years ago

    Think the parliamentarians are too many. This gives way for the inclusion of the number of poor performing ones, such as those, whose job experience, that they think could qualify them for a Defence Ministerial post, should i ...

    I can boldly say that whoever conducted this poll did it in his office cubicle - didn't leave it for a minute, didn't talk to anyone. Even an 8 year old school kid will tell you that all the MPs in Ghana (all 100% of them) ar ...

    Wow am surprise thought it will be more.

  • Phel 9 years ago

    I think the 62% is really small. It may actually be 97% of Ghanaians who not only think MP's are corrupt but they also know they are corrupt.

    God is watching them.

    With partisan politics and sycophancy so ripe in our society, it is very difficult for a genuine MP to speak his/her mind especially if belongs to same party in power. When in opposition, any goes but when in power, its all a ...
