When Mr. Ofori-Atta failed to appear for invitations to be questioned in February and June, the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) declared him wanted. He is currently undergoing medical care abroad.

In order to arrest him for allegedly misusing his position for financial advantage, the OSP then requested an INTERPOL Red Notice.

Corruption-related charges against the former minister include those pertaining to the National Cathedral project and the SML revenue assurance contract.

Former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta’s extradition should have been part of the agreement to accept third-party West African deportees from the United States, according to Franklin Cudjoe, the founding president of IMANI Africa.

Due to Mr. Ofori-Atta’s failure to appear for interrogation, the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) issued two wanted declarations in February and June. He is presently receiving medical care overseas.

In order to arrest him for allegedly abusing his public position for personal benefit, the OSP then requested a Red Notice from INTERPOL.

For corruption-related offenses, including issues with the National Cathedral project and the SML revenue assurance contract, the former minister is under investigation.

“The AG and the OSP should address us at a news conference to address these indiscretions in order to clarify the air. These anti-corruption organizations should, after all, cooperate rather than engage in pointless turf disputes. We are losing money in the meantime, and I have no doubt that this careless leak has given Ken Ofori-Atta strong ammo to launch a fierce defense against his extradition. What the devil is this? He inquired.
