The immediate past Chairman of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) committee and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has revealed that the government could recover as much as $21.19 billion from stolen state assets.
Mr Ablakwa explained that, after reviewing 36 major cases, high-value cases, and land-related loots, the committee has the potential to reclaim this substantial sum.
He stated, “In total, considering the 36 cases, the high-value cases we’ve identified, and the land-related loots, we can potentially raise about $21.19 billion. This is far more than what we’ve been pursuing from the International Monetary Fund(IMF), subjecting ourselves to all sorts of conditionalities.”
He also took the opportunity to express his sincere gratitude to former President Mahama and his team of advisors for initiating this vital project.
Meanwhile, former deputy Attorney General Daniel Tua Yeboah has disclosed that there is a clear distinction between mere complaints and complaints with evidence, if it is about rumors that the Oral team has gathered, then he will be disappointed, but if it is about genuine complaints back, with evidence, then we are all in for it.
According to Mr. Tuah Yeboah, it’s very easy to sit in your office and then put figures together, but the actual work is how to recover the money.
