He acknowledged the challenges and difficulties in delivering on such a promise, adding, however, that they remain resolute and will not relent in that pursuit.

Asiedu Nketiah also assured that state funds misappropriated by former appointees will be recovered.

“Another difficult promise which we are struggling to deliver and that is the Operation Recover All Loot. We all know how much the NPP government in 8 years has stolen from the national coffers and we have promised to recover all the money that has been stolen.

“We are not yielding and work has started seriously to ensure that these money are recovered and they are put to good use,” he assured.
