The General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, says Finance Minister ken Ofori Atta and his deputy Charles Adu-Boahen should be prosecuted over the Agyapa Royalties deal.
According to General Secretary of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, conclusions of the Special Prosecutor after his corruption risk analysis on the agyapa deal is enough to have led to the suspension of the two officials.
“In any serious country, Ken Ofori-Atta and Charles Adu-Boahen would have been suspended pending criminal investigations or better still, under criminal prosecution by now. Sadly, in our case, President Akufo-Addo has decided to shield these corrupt officials from punishment as he usually does. This is exactly what nepotism does to a country.
“It completely blinds leaders and weakens their ability to crack the whip on their errant and corrupt appointees,” he told a news conference in Accra Tuesday.
