The Dutch Ambassador to Ghana Ron Strikker has clarified recent comments he made on Ghana beyond Corruption widely published by the media.
In a statement, Ambassador Strikker expressed regret that some media houses have suggested that he called the Ghana beyond aid agenda to be replaced by a Ghana beyond Corruption Agenda.
”Nothing could be further from the truth. The Netherlands has been and will be a staunch supporter of the Ghana beyond Aid Agenda initiated by President Nana Dankwa Akufo-Addo in 2017” he said.
He said all efforts by government and civil society in Ghana to stamp out corruption are part and parcel of the Ghana Beyond Aid Agenda adding that Netherlands was also committed to support the efforts of Ghana to fight corruption, including some support to civil society organizations such as the Ghana Integrity Initiative.
”I hope this will help the determined efforts of government and civil society to fight corruption which is a core element of the Ghana beyond Aid Agenda,” the statement ended.
