General News of Thursday, 28 March 2019Source: citinewsroom.comRTI law not just about fighting corruption – AyarigaMahama AyarigaFormer Information Minister and Bawku Central MP, Mahama Ayariga, has rejected suggestions that making the Information Minister responsible for the implementation of the Right to Information Law will jeopardize the credibility of the law. He argued that the RTI Law was envisioned for much more than just fighting corruption. Parliament finally passed the RTI Bill into law on Tuesday, March 26, 2019, after several policy changes and amendments. Before the Bill was passed, the government changed the Minister responsible from the Attorney General to the Information Minister. We are creating the impression that information related issues are about fighting corruption.
