Member of Parliament for Ablekuma Central constituency, Hon. Ebenezer Nartey Has urged government to erect national monuments and name them after corrupt government officials after monies have been retrieved.
He said corrupt officials shouldn’t just be jailed but government should retrieve all monies from such people.

“Everyone who is found guilty of corruption shouldn’t just be jailed because they will in return in four to ten years and if the monies they stole was invested, they will reap more. The Monies should be used to build a school or construct a hospital and named after the person with an indication showing that the structure was erected from monies retrieved from the said person”. – He said.
Hon. Ebenezer Nartey has encouraged that monies should be retrieved from such persons and the exact money used to construct national monuments like schools, hospitals, roads with an indication that this is what the stolen money was used for along with the perpetrators name.
