The Management of the Christian Service University College (CSUC) in Kumasi will contribute towards the fight against corruption in Ghana using among other things public lectures to shape society.<\/p>\n

The institution is of the firm belief that many Ghanaians are concerned about corruption, and want to see it tacked effectively.<\/p>\n

The Akufo-Addo \u00a0administration has said it is adopting several measures to boost the fight against corruption.<\/p>\n

Government says it has initiated steps including\u00a0a pledge\u00a0to pass the Independent Prosecutor Bill, and the Right to Information Bill (RTI), as part of efforts to ensure accountability and transparency, which will ultimately curb corruption.<\/p>\n

The President of the CSUC, Professor Sam Afrane,\u00a0speaking at a press briefing ahead of a Public Lecture on the Corruption menace in Ghana, said the institution will also support the national fight.<\/p>\n

The lecture, slated for Friday, October 13, 2017, is on the theme: \u201cInstitutional Corruption in Ghana: Causes and Effects\u201d.<\/p>\n

It will be delivered by the former moderator of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Reverend Professor Emmanuel Martey, Managing Director of the Graphic Communications Group, Ken Ashigbey, and will be chaired by General Secretary of the Christian Council of Ghana, Reverend Dr. Opuni Frimpong.<\/p>\n

Professor Martey will speak on \u201cInstitutional Corruption in Ghana: The Realities, Causes and Effects\u201d, while Mr. Ashigbey will focus on \u201cThe Efficacy of Anti-corruption measures in Ghana: What is missing and the way Forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Professor Afrane emphasized that fighting corruption in the country must not be left in the hands of Government alone.<\/p>\n

He called on the citizenry to make inputs and support the Government to nip corrupt practices in the bud.<\/p>\n
