This Saturday on Newsfile, host Samson Lardy Anyenini and his panellists will discuss the Constitution Review Committee’s final report and the latest updates on the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL), including high-profile cases.
On Monday, December 22, the Constitution Review Committee submitted its final report to President John Dramani Mahama, marking a key step in Ghana’s constitutional reform process.
Key recommendations include separating the legislature from the executive, reaffirming that there is no provision for a third presidential term, and extending the presidential term from four to five years.
Also, this week, the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Dr Dominic Akuritinga Ayine, provided updates on ORAL.
Among the cases highlighted, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, known as Chairman Wontumi, and directors of Wontumi Farms are expected to face charges over alleged state losses exceeding GH¢24 million.
Investigations revealed that the company applied for a loan before registration, submitted forged documents, and failed to implement the project.
Percival Kofi Akpaloo of the Liberal Party and associated entities will also face prosecution for allegedly diverting COCOBOD contract funds, including allegations of forgery.
ORAL is a government-led initiative aimed at investigating corruption, misappropriation, and dissipation of state assets to recover public funds through criminal and civil processes.
This special programme will provide an in-depth discussion of the CRC report, helping viewers understand both the process of constitutional review and the implications of the committee’s recommendations for Ghana’s democratic future.
