Martin Amidu had accused Mahama’s government as very corrupt and campaigned against his re-election. Prior to the election, the former AG who has zero tolerance for corruption, encouraged Ghanaians to vote against the Mahama-led government, which he described as a looter government.
The outspoken former AG is now back with his calls for transparency and accountability in government. In his letter he asked the newly elected President to be mindful of Mahama’s mistakes, which caused his being voted out in the elections.
Part of his open letter read that;
All that these ordinary and committed citizens care about is that you never repeat the mistakes of your immediate predecessor’s government which simply took Ghanaians for granted as undiscerning and looted them to pulp.
Martin Amidu also asked the President to restore citizen’s confidence in him, by honoring his promise of blocking corruption from creeping into his government.
Mr. President, your anti-corruption promise and agenda in my view was your winning manifesto item at the elections whose actualization we are expecting you to implement without fear or favour, affection or ill will, no matter whose ass is gored, he also stated
Martin Amidu in his letter, pointed out that he like many other Ghanaians, are not followers of Nana Addo’s party; but voted him, out of their wish to experience a less corrupt society. He stated that Nana Addo will succeed if only he continues to occupy his high moral grounds, as well as tackle corruption with full force, as he promised.
Many Ghanaians, like me, are not followers of your political party but I dare say that as long as you continue occupying that high moral ground and fight corruption in deeds you will succeed and your first four-year tenure will usher in the golden age of Ghana again. He added.
