The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has served a stringent directive to former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, mandating his personal appearance at the OSP headquarters on Monday, June 2, 2025. Non-compliance will precipitate severe and far-reaching consequences, including potential reinstatement on the OSP’s roster of wanted individuals and formal designation as a fugitive from justice.
The OSP has unequivocally stated that it will pursue measures to procure an INTERPOL Red Notice against the erstwhile minister, a development that could culminate in his international apprehension and extradition.
This latest escalation is an integral component of the ongoing probe into alleged malfeasance and abuse of office during Mr. Ofori-Atta’s tenure as Finance Minister.
Notably, Mr. Ofori-Atta had previously been removed from the OSP’s wanted list in recognition of what authorities characterized as “significant cooperation.” However, it appears that the OSP’s tolerance has been exhausted, and the former minister is now expected to demonstrate an unrelenting commitment to the investigation.
The OSP’s warning is categorical: Ken Ofori-Atta must report by the stipulated deadline or face the attendant consequences. The imperative for compliance is unequivocal, and the clock is ticking with unrelenting urgency.
