In a recent address at the Constitution Day Public Lecture, Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin emphasized that corruption extends beyond the political sphere, urging a collective societal approach to combat it. He questioned the tendency to associate corruption solely with politicians, suggesting that such a narrow focus undermines efforts to address the issue effectively. Afenyo-Markin highlighted that cultural and societal expectations often influence unethical decisions, indicating that corruption is a pervasive problem requiring collective action. He also noted that individuals who benefit from corrupt practices seldom voice concerns, whereas those who do not are often the loudest critics.

Afenyo-Markin concluded by advocating for a fair and comprehensive assessment of corruption, recognizing its presence across all sectors of society.
