75% of Ghanaians Think Corruption Has Increased In The last 2 Years – GSS

Source The Ghana Report

More than half of the Ghanaian public thinks corruption has increased in the last two years, a survey released by the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) has revealed.

The survey also suggests that about half of the people surveyed, representing 52.6%, think corruption increased due to the novel COVID-19.

“Three in every four (75.0%) adults think corruption increased in Ghana in the two years preceding the survey, with 52.6% thinking corruption increased due to COVID-19.

“The most frequently selected strategies for fighting corruption are improving living standards (45.1% of adults), improving access to basic services for all (41.2% of
adults), and introducing an anonymous reporting system against corruption (35.9% of adults),” the report said.

Its key findings further revealed that less than half (46.5%) of adults in Ghana are aware of the major anti-corruption agencies, thus the Office of the Special Prosecutor, the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) and the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO).

The findings also indicate that one in every three adults (32.6%) reported not feeling safe walking around in their neighbourhood at night.

A slightly higher proportion of people who reported not feeling safe paid bribes in the past 12 months compared to those who felt safe.

“Three in every 10 (29.6%) adults who do not feel safe paid a bribe compared to 25.2% of those who feel safe,” the report added.
