Honorable Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the Member of Parliament for North Tongu, has made a bold statement, claiming, “I would have made more money if I were corrupt,” during a discussion on his recent revelations about the school feeding program. His remarks came after he accused the government of distributing expired rice to schools under the Ghana School Feeding Program, a situation he described as a serious breach of public trust.
Ablakwa’s comment underscores his commitment to transparency and accountability, emphasizing that his focus is on exposing wrongdoing rather than personal enrichment. He stated that corruption has no place in public service and criticized the government for what he termed as mismanagement and negligence in providing quality food for schoolchildren.
This statement has sparked widespread reactions, with some commending Ablakwa for his stance on accountability, while others have called for thorough investigations into the allegations surrounding the expired rice. The issue has added to ongoing concerns about the administration of the School Feeding Program, with calls for reform and greater oversight to protect the welfare of Ghanaian children.
