Founder and leader of the All Peoples Congress, Hassan Ayariga, has paid a courtesy call on the National Chief Imam, Sheikh Osman Nuhu Sharubutu.
According to Mr. Ayariga, he will make sure corruption is curbed if elected into power in the 2020 polls.
Presenting his policies to the National Chief Imam, Ayariga said when he is voted into power, he would introduce a national data system to monitor every Ghanaian
This system, according to him, would take stock of whatever an individual has, ranging from, cars, houses, income, as well as family details.
Ayariga stated that, if the data gives officials a reason to believe that your lifestyle and income do not tally, that individual would have to answer to it.
He added that, if this system is put in place, corruption would be dealt with, and this would in turn save the country's resources and ensure that it is curbed.
