While addressing an audience at the 61st Independence day celebration
of Ghana in Accra earlier today, President Buhari promised to help the
Ghanaian government fight corruption in their country.
The head of states, during his speech, noted that with the right
leadership and implementation of public policies, Africa’s quest to
eradicate poverty and entrench democracy was on course.
He commended the Ghanaian president, Nana Akufo-Addo, on his
achievements in his first year in office with particular reference to his
committed efforts towards stamping out corruption from Ghana.
He’s quoted as saying,

Your Excellency can be assured that you have a good partner
in me as I look forward to any form of collaboration between
Nigeria and Ghana in tackling the menace of endemic
corruption.
From Nigeria, I have watched closely your achievements,
ranging from your ingenious approach to creating jobs for the
teeming youths through various initiatives, including the
repositioning of agriculture for modern farming, ‘Farming for
Jobs and Food’, Senior High School (SHS) free education, One-
District-One-Factory, and One-Village-One-Dam as well as
the improvement being recorded in the Republic’s
macroeconomic indicators.
All these efforts, I am aware, have made Ghana to become a
good destination for foreign direct investment just like
Nigeria. Accept my congratulations! I congratulate both the
government and the Parliament for the quick passage of the
Office of the Special Prosecutor Act and its signing into law.
Given all these public policies, it becomes reassuring that with
the right leadership, Africa’s drives to eradicate poverty and
to entrench democracy is on course,” he said.
