In a post on X on June 15, 2026, Mussa Dankwah wrote, “The corruption perception index for June 2026 shows the least perceived corrupt institutions in Ghana are ministers/government officials, the presidency and the military.
The most corrupt are still the Ghana Police, Ghana Immigration Service and now business executives who have sunk low for the first time. Though the Ghana Police Service and the Immigration Service retained the number 1 and 2 spots, their overall scores improved, suggesting something good might be happening in those services.
While ministers/government appointees scored improved compared to the last poll, the presidency actually deteriorated, moving from a low score of 4.77 in March to 4.84 in June 2026. They must be on the watchout”.
