CDD: Rising costs of politics fueling corruption, new laws needed

The Ghana Center for Democratic Development (CDD) is calling for urgent reforms in campaign and party financing to combat corruption and reduce election costs.

They urge political candidates to commit to new legislation for transparent and regulated donations and expenditures.

The CDD also advocates for the long-overdue Conduct of Public Officers (COPO) bill to close public sector corruption loopholes.

They emphasize the need for clear rules, enforcement, and standardized processes to ensure a fair and accountable political system.
