His comments come in the wake of mounting allegations of corruption during the tenure of President Nana Akufo-Addo, with some critics accusing the government of turning a blind eye to certain high-profile scandals and corrupt practices.

These include issues surrounding state contracts, misuse of public funds, and alleged financial mismanagement.

"I took the risk and campaigned for you (during the 2024 elections). John eei, I didn't campaign for you for any reason. I just wanted you to deal with corrupt officers in the previous administration. And if you fail to do so, trust me, you will clap for me," he said.

The controversial presenter, who is known for his no-holds-barred commentary on political and social issues, reiterated his commitment to the fight against corruption in Ghana.

President Mahama has taken some steps towards tackling corruption. After his swearing-in, the current administration has initiated some arrests and investigations into corruption-related matters involving some former government officials.

The former National Signals Bureau boss, Kwabena Adu-Boahene, Chairman Wontumi, and others are all facing charges over corruption-related offences.

Despite the arrests and investigations, none of the accused have been prosecuted so far. Captain Smart believes the country’s leadership must demonstrate political will in enforcing the laws, regardless of political affiliation or past ties.
