Throwback to an Anti-Corruption Win!

In 2019, Corruption Watch Ghana uncovered graft at the Ada Magistrate Court, Greater Accra Region. Frederick Asiamah, an investigator at Corruption Watch, who has interacted with a number of victims says he found that the practice had gone on for years, especially at the court registrar’s office.

The project team subsequently submitted a petition to the Judicial Service on investigations into corrupt activities in February 2020. The Judicial Service set up a Disciplinary Committee following the Corruption Watch report and found the Registrar guilty of the charges. He has since been dismissed.

This case underscores the power of investigative journalism and public accountability in the fight against corruption.
