Veteran comedian and social commentator Kwaku Sintim-Misa, also known as KSM, has praised the arrest of the former Managing Director of GIHOC, Maxwell Kofi Jumah, as a critical step in Ghana’s fight against systemic corruption.
Jumah was detained on June 29, 2025, by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) over the alleged theft of state vehicles, including a Genesis G90 purchased at just 5% of its actual value.
In a fiery monologue on his YouTube channel, KSM condemned the attitude among some appointees who view public office as an opportunity to plunder.
“This was a mentality that they’re here to reap and loot the country. Even with nothing to loot, the little that was there, they took.
“It’s nothing personal, but I was happy to know that work is being done and that Kofi Jumah has been picked up by National Security in Kumasi. Work is being done, and he is not the only one.
“If those who looted are being picked up one by one, that will send a signal that Ghanaians are sick and tired of being sick and tired, and they are saying ‘never again,’” he said.
He warned the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) against allowing any of its appointees in government to adopt such a corrupt mindset.
“If the NDC’s appointees adopt this mindset, it’ll be a monumental disaster.
“Resetting means thinking as one nation, one destiny. Stay focused; this isn’t the season for political games,” he added.
