A Ghanaian citizen residing in the US has reported an incident involving missing money from the home of Cecilia Dapaah, the former Minister for Sanitation and Water Resources. The situation is becoming increasingly challenging for Dapaah, as the issue of stolen assets continues to haunt her.
The complainant, Grace Loki, has taken the matter to multiple US government institutions, urging them to investigate suspected money laundering activities. Loki specifically highlights an amount of US$1 million, which allegedly went missing from Dapaah's private residence and has been attributed to domestic workers.
Loki's decision to involve US authorities stems from her lack of confidence in the Ghanaian government and its institutions to conduct a thorough inquiry into the matter. She believes that the leadership of Nana Addo may not ensure a fair resolution.
During an interview on OBGhPage's Facebook Live, Loki emphasized her determination to ensure that if Dapaah owns any property in the US, it undergoes investigation by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and appropriate taxes are paid. She argues that everyone, including lottery winners, is legally obligated to pay taxes on their earnings.
Adding to the controversy surrounding Dapaah, recent reports suggest that several domestic workers employed by the former minister are facing charges for allegedly stealing large sums of money. The amounts in question include US$1 million, €300,000, and GH¢350,000.
The gravity of these allegations against Dapaah and her domestic workers further complicates the situation. With appeals made to the FBI, the Federal Reserve, the Treasury Department, and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), it is evident that Loki is seeking a comprehensive investigation into possible money laundering activities.
As the investigation unfolds, the focus remains on uncovering the truth behind the missing funds and holding those responsible accountable. However, the involvement of US government institutions adds a new dimension to the case, reflecting the growing international reach and cross-border implications of financial crimes. The outcome of this investigation will undoubtedly have significant consequences for all parties involved.
