Accra, Feb. 13 (Palaver) — For Ghanaians who have given up on the fight against corruption because of President Kufuor?s clear attitude of condonation of and disinterest in fighting corruption, the President of the World Bank, Paul Wolfowitz, has provided a ray of hope.
The World Bank President says he has targeted corruption, and that his anti-graft team must have a central role.
He has also sworn to crack down on corruption by Governments and officials in developing countries where the Bank operates.
Perhaps, this opens a window of opportunity for Ghanaians to e-mail all corruption cases that come to their attention to the World Bank instead of going to the trouble of looking for evidence before making a complaint to Ghana?s anti-corruption agencies, which is President Kufuor?s panacea for fighting corruption.
The World Bank President can be reached through Marco Mantovanelli, [email protected] head of external affairs, and his colleague Tim Carrington [email protected] and Marina Vasilieva on telephone number (7-095) 7457000 and e-mail [email protected].
