Ghana recorded a marginal improvement on the global corruption index recently published by Transparency International. Ghana is currently ranked 61 out of 175 countries surveyed across the world.
In 2012, Ghana scored 45 points out of 100; 46 points in 2013 and 48 in 2014 [0 means highly corrupt while 100 means very clean].In the ranking order, Ghana ranked 64 out of 175 in 2012 and in 2013, the country placed 63 out of 175 countries.
But commenting on the report, a former Commissioner of the Commission for Human Right and Administrative Justice, Justice Francis Emile Short, said the latest CPI seemed “contrary to what we are experiencing in the country.”
“There are many voices that have expressed grave concern about the state of corruption in the country. The report does not reflect what we are experiencing,” he said.

The Executive Secretary of the Ghana Anti Corruption Coalition (GACC), Mrs Linda Ofori-Kwafo, said the marginal increase should not give Ghanaians a cause to rejoice. pfmonline.com.
