Legal practitioner Ansa-Asare believes that corruption has become deeply woven into Ghanaian society.
He described the problem as pervasive and systemic in an interview on the KSM Show monitored by Lovinghananews.com.
“Every Ghanaian is corrupt. From the President to the conservancy labourer, we are all corrupt,” he asserted, stressing that the fight against corruption must be comprehensive.
He recounted experiences within the corridors of power that shaped his perception of governance culture.
“You visit the home of a Ghanaian president. Ministers go there in the wee hours of the day to virtually sleep there. Corruption,” he said, suggesting that such behaviors reinforce patronage and unhealthy governance practices.
Ansa-Asare was also critical of the school selection and placement system, insisting it has damaged the country’s future.
“Whoever brought that placement has done Ghana an incalculable harm,” he remarked.
Although his political history spans the Progress Party, Popular Front Party, and the NPP tradition, he made it clear that he does not engage politics with blind loyalty.
“I don’t do my politicking partisanly. No,” he stressed.
To him, the duty of every citizen is simple but demanding; “If I see wrongdoing, I should be able to deal with that corner, and I don’t care whose are to be hurt.”
