President of the Volta Regional House of Chiefs, Torgbui Afede XIV has
challenged the government to deepen efforts to deal with corruption in
the country.
According to him, their corrupt practices have the tendency of
damaging the country's developmental goals and therefore effective
steps should be taken to address the canker.
"The government must intensify the battle against corruption," he stressed.
The Agbogbomefia of the Asogli State was addressing a grand durbar of
chiefs and people of the area to climax this year's yam festival in
Ho.
He further criticized corruption among the political elite, pointing
to its damaging effect on the country's development goals.
He urged politicians to refocus on development rather than banking
their hopes on winning elections.
