Corruption will stop Ghana if we don't vote Mahama out - NPP

The Director of Elections for the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah has entreated Ghanaians to vote out President Mahama and his NDC administration to "stop corruption before it stops us."

According to him, corruption under the Mahama-led administration is now institutionalised with looting and sharing among cronies and friends of government.

He said he is personally getting worried because allegations of corruption under President Mahama is becoming a national embarrassment.

Corruption under the NDC he said is "untold in our history". Mr. Korsah was speaking in an interview with Rainbow Radio 87.5FM.

According to him, government inflated the cost of the so-called projects touted by the President as well as mismanagement and misappropriation of the loans contracted.

Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah noted that the only way to end corruption under President Mahama is to vote him out before corruption destroys this country.

"Corruption is now institutionalised under Mahama...I am personally getting worried that anytime the name of my President is mentioned, is about corruption and allegations, and I’m deeply worried. It's becoming a national embarrassment. We have witnessed corruption under different governments; I'm not saying that there was no corruption under previous governments but what we have seen under this government is untold in our history. We cannot always hear allegations and if it has to be our President, it has to be about corruption. Let's stop corruption now before it stops Ghana. And it’s by voting out these guys," Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah stated.

He stressed that, "If we don't stop corruption today, corruption will stop Ghana. And Mahama has to be shown the way out with his government. Enough of the looting of the country's resources."

He urged Ghanaians to judge the NPP by its record and will come to realise that the party is the only alternative for the woes in this country.

Citizens, he concluded, are is despair with no hope, but an NPP government will deliver to Ghanaians a resilient economy and crack the whip on corruption, he underscored.

Meanwhile, Deputy General Secretary of the NDC George Lawson rubbished the claims by Martin Korsah and stated that the NDC under Mahama has dealt with corruption than any government in history.
