IT WON'T GET ANYWHERE - ASIEDU NKETIAH ON OSP'S ACTION AGAINST CECILIA DAPAAH

Johnson Asiedu Nketia, the Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), is sceptical that the investigation against the scandal-plagued former Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources, Cecilia Abena Dapaah, that is being conducted by the Office of the Special Prosecutor will provide any fruitful results.


Following allegations that the OSP has received over 200 petitions to investigate Madam Dapaah, the office of the Superintendent of Police (OSP) placed Madam Dapaah under custody on Monday in order to question her for many hours.


Following this, the office conducted a search at her residence in Ablemkpe in addition to her official residence in Cantonments. The search was conducted because her house helps are suspected of stealing almost $1 million in United States dollars, €300,000 in European currency, and millions of Ghana cedis from her between July and October of 2022.


On the programme Dwaso Nsem broadcast by Adom FM, Mr. Nketia discussed the new information and stated that it will not lead anywhere.


"It's all a part of Nana Addo's concert and his management of Ghanaians' anger," he said. Since we have been through this before, he said, "I don't have any faith" in what was being said.


General Mosquito emphasised that the content of President Nana Akufo-Addo's acceptance letter to Madam Dapaah's resignation was a key factor in his conviction, and he said this multiple times throughout his speech.


Who are you as a linguist to oppose that? He questioned. "If the Paramount chief rules on a matter and says someone is innocent, who are you as a linguist to challenge that?"


In a letter in which he accepted the resignation of the Minister, the President stated, "I am confident, like you, that, at the end of the day, your integrity, while you are in office, will be fully established." I want to wish you the very best of luck in anything you do.


Since then, many people have questioned whether the President's comment on the Minister's integrity was simply a parting message after her years of public service or whether it was in fact a defence of her behaviour in the face of the allegations of suspected malfeasance.
