He said the commission of inquiry method would be a more efficient way to help combat corruption in the country other than just declaring one’s assets before entering office. “There is a great public interest in hauling all the appointees before a commission of inquiry,” he said. A reintroduction of such a commission of inquiry, will keep government appointees on their toes and their fingers out of the state’s coffers, he stated. Martin Kpebu in response recounted some clever ways Ghanaians had employed to serve the commission with information.
