Crusaders Against Corruption-Ghana (CACG) has petitioned the Special Prosecutor to investigate claims made by Member of Parliament for Assin Central Constituency Ken Ohene Agyapong that the Chief of Staff gave him GH120,000 to give to Dome-Sarah Kwabenya’s Adwoa Safo to entice her to travel to Ghana to attend parliamentary sittings.
On Tuesday, February 22, Ken Agyapong of Accra-based Asaase Radio claimed that a private jet was also rented for the former Deputy Majority Leader to enable her return to Accra.
“Mr Special Prosecutor, in light of the foregoing, Crusaders Against Corruption Ghana (CACG) is formally petitioning your office to investigate the source of these funds, determine whether or not there is misappropriation of public funds from the office of the Chief of Staff or any other public office, and determine whether or not the publication made by Hon. Ken Agyapong is false.”
The Crusaders have stated that they will wait for the results of an independent investigation on the claims before taking any further action.
“Mr Special Prosecutor, CACG counts on your prompt response and action to this appeal in the interest of Ghana,” the petition signed by Chief Crusader Emmanuel Wilson Jnr concluded.
The Office of the Special Prosecutor has acknowledged receipt of the petition (OSP).
