This survey proves that Afrobarometer has not been successful in making a difference when it come to fighting corruption in Ghana. Might have to take a look at how they operate.

These are NPP people or these are the results from the NPP era
Foolish follower, you need to have your face washed with sea sand. Your foolish attitude is killing Ghana. VOTE CORRUPT AND INCOMPETENT MAHAMA OUT IN 2016.

We all know this is part of NPP propaganda part of it grand design. Even when a sitting president says corruption is as old as Adam, Ghana was no where near the top ten as terrible as it was at that time
Since when did Ghana started to fight Corruption?.
Very sad
This is more like the most influential ghanaian survey. Go ask npp nbongies and make it sound ghanaian.
if the findings is accurate and no bias than all the useless politicians should go for mental check-up may corruption has become a disease in Ghana.

Corruption creates and increases poverty and exclusion. It makes the poor poorer. Do not take corruption light. Do not take it easy.

When the head is rotten everywhere else is rotten. When thePresident is himself corrupt, the whole country becomes corrupt.
This is why mahama should understand that if not corruption he will never be The President of Ghana. This echo what Nana Konadu is been saying.Shame on ndc 4 this hardship on Ghanaians.
