You Are the Prime Suspect in Five Corruption Cases – OSP to Ofori-Atta

Published on

, Ghana Street Journal

The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has issued a firm directive to Kenneth Nana Yaw Ofori-Atta, requiring his appearance before the OSP on June 2, 2025, or risk being declared a fugitive from justice.

According to the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, Ofori-Atta had contested the OSP’s prior declaration labeling him as a wanted person. He formally requested the removal of his name from the wanted persons’ list, assuring the OSP that he would avail himself for questioning.

“The OSP, in good faith and on the basis of Mr. Ofori-Atta’s assurance, granted his request and removed his name from the OSP’s list of wanted persons pending his personal attendance at the OSP on the definite date,” the statement read.

However, the OSP made it clear that his attendance on June 2, 2025, is mandatory.

“Mr. Ofori-Atta is mandatorily required to appear in person before the OSP on 2 June 2025. If Mr. Ofori-Atta fails to attend the OSP on the scheduled date, he shall be re-entered on the OSP’s list of wanted persons and the OSP shall consider him a fugitive from justice.”

Furthermore, the OSP has warned that failure to appear will trigger an Interpol Red Notice, and extradition proceedings will be initiated in any jurisdiction where he may be found.

The Special Prosecutor emphasized the agency’s commitment to ensuring Ofori-Atta answers for his alleged involvement as “the prime suspect in five ongoing corruption and corruption-related investigations.”
