Mr Benedict Doh, the Finance Manager at the Ghana Integrity Initiative (GII), has observed that building integrity among the youth is the surest way to promote accountability to fight corruption.

He said educating the younger generation about the benefits of integrity, transparency, and good governance would imbibe in them the good moral ethics to kick out the canker.

Mr Benedict Doh was speaking at the Anti-Corruption Forum held in Tamale aimed at informing and educating the youth to be part of the fight against corruption, whiles ensuring transparency and accountability at all levels of the society.

He said the youth were the future leaders and the beacon of hope, saying “it is unacceptable to allow them to continue to reinforce the status quo of corrupt practices, whiles preparing themselves for leadership at the various stages in the future”.

The event was organised by the GII in partnership with the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE), with funding from Global Affairs Canada through its Local Chapter the Transparency International (TI).
