By this, the District Assembly would help the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) and the NCCE with logistics including fuel, to embark upon public education against the concern at public places such as the market square, churches, mosque, lorry parks, and schools.

Mr. Nuodio Benjamin, the District Planner of the Assembly, said this at a Policy Dialogue forum held at Zebilla to disseminate the findings of a Survey Report on Knowledge, Perception, and Experiences of Corruption in the area.

The forum, organized by SEND-Ghana, was aimed at sharing the findings of the survey report with stakeholders and elicit their views on how to address issues raised in the report.

It attracted stakeholders including senior staff from the CHRAJ, the Police, NCCE, representatives of political parties, the District Assembly, Persons With

Disability, the media, civil society organizations, traditional and religious leaders.

The Assembly also gave the assurance that it would strengthen the Public Relations Unit of the Assembly and urged citizens to report issues of corruption to the Assembly.
