President of policy think tank, IMANI Africa has urged the Special Prosecutor nominee, Martin Amidu, to turn up the heat on the Office of Government Machinery and assess the expenses incurred by the agencies under the office in recent years.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026If we are looking at the office of the government machinery for instance in the last 12 years, you would see consistently that it has been the most wasteful and actually the source of corruption as well. That is why we are saying that if you want to fight corruption, let\u2019s start from the office of government machinery because they put up all these portfolio of agencies that are duplicatory and not needed,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
