Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the Chairperson of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) committee, has commended loyalists of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) that have expressed support for the initiative.
He says the ORAL, which aims to retrieve all state assets misappropriated by people under the current administration has been given support by persons who want to see the nation restored on the principles of accountability and transparency.
A post made on his X Sunday, December 22, 2024, indicated that the initiative is meant to protect state assets that have been looted by corrupt and greedy individuals.
He averred that the Operation is not a partisan effort but a national cause, describing those unhappy about it as being a part of the NPP’s “looting brigade”.
“Great to see more NPP stalwarts support Mahama’s Operation-Recover-All-Loot (ORAL). Predictably, all Ghanaians who were not part of the notorious NPP looting brigade are excited about ORAL. Nothing will stop the people’s ORAL!” he stated.
“This initiative belongs to every Ghanaian who believes in justice, fairness, and the responsible use of state resources,” he concluded.

According to him, the team has put in place measures to review public records and partner with international agencies through legal means to retrieve all state assets clandestinely obtained by people.
He says the team’s work would not be influenced by political affiliations, reemphasising its commitment to ensure anything taken from the state dubiously would be retrieved.
