Former Rector of the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA) Professor Stephen Adei has said that the average Ghanaian is corrupt.
This, in his view, has resulted in the kind of leaders Ghanaians have been experiencing over the period.
Speaking on the Ghana Tonight show on TV3 Tuesday, April 4, the former Board Chair of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) said the politicians have realized the corrupt nature of the average Ghanaian hence they are manipulating the system to their advantage.
Asked whether the leaders are the kind of people Ghanaians deserve or the process of electing the leaders is problematic, he answered “There is no doubt at all that we have moved as a country over the years whereby the process of electing leadership has been largely influenced by money and propaganda and sometimes deceit.
“But the question is, how did we get there? Initially, I think people were willing to give people the chance on their capabilities but over time the politicians have let the people down so much so that it has come to the point whereby the people say, let us get our best upfront.
