The Minority in Parliament has called on former government appointees to reject any invitations from the Operation Recover All Loots (ORAL) committee, labeling its establishment as unconstitutional. Led by John Darko, the Member of Parliament for Suame, the Minority caucus contends that the creation of ORAL is illegal, claiming that there are already constitutionally established bodies in place to investigate alleged misconduct.
John Darko emphasised that members of the former government would not engage in the activities of ORAL activities in any capacity. “No serious country will entertain anything like this. So, if you are a former government official and receive an invitation from this so-called ORAL, the Minority’s advice is to boycott it,” he said.
“We will not participate because we believe constitutionally mandated bodies are equipped to investigate any alleged mistakes of the government.” ORAL is chaired by the Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa. It was established on December 18, 2024 to recover looted state assets.
