The Convention People’s Party (CPP) has expressed its unwavering support for the Operation Recovery All Loot (ORAL) initiative, describing it as a necessary step towards reclaiming state assets looted by corrupt government officials and politicians.

“Nobody can say that the ORAL is a bad initiative unless they are unpatriotic or have looted the state themselves,” a statement signed and issued by the party’s National Communications Director, Osei Kofi Acquah, said.

“It is absurd and annoying that people who were employed by the state ended up selling the very state enterprises, institutions, and other properties to themselves and their cronies.

“The recovery of the loot must include even vehicles which were originally owned by the state, but had been sold to politicians and civil servants who were supposed to be custodians of those properties on behalf of the people of Ghana,” it said.

The statement said the majority of Ghanaians voted for the NDC government because of the ORAL initiative, which aims to recover looted state assets, including vehicles, lands and other property.

The party said it was advocating the recovery of these assets some of which dated back to 1966, following the coup that led to the impunity of military and government officials allocating state property to themselves.

The CPP questioned the morality of allowing ministers with firsthand information to purchase state property at low prices.

“We in the CPP want the ORAL to go beyond Accra. State lands, state factories, state institutions, state enterprises and everything that was once upon a time a property of the state which now belongs to an individual or a group of individuals must be reclaimed for the state without any excuse,” it said.
