Ghana’s President-elect Nana Akufo-Addo |
He said his government would distance itself by allowing an independent prosecutor to investigate cases and make its own decisions.
Mr Akufo-Addo defeated incumbent John Dramani Mahama in last week’s election.
In an interview with the BBC in his home in Accra, Mr Akufo-Addo outlined how he intended to deliver the promises he made to Ghanaians which earned him the presidency.
He said the prosecutor would be “somebody who will be independent of the executive and whose remit will be to investigate and tackle issues of corruption”.
He also warned that people in his government would not be “immune from investigation merely because we are politicians”.
Mr Akufo-Addo is to be sworn in on 7 January.
