In other news, according to the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), Cecilia Dapaah, a former minister for water resources and sanitation, had enormous sums of money in her accounts.
The OSP is cited as saying that funds totaling $5,000,000 and $48,000,000,000 Ghana cedis were discovered in a Prudential Bank account owned by the former Minister in an exclusive report by Accra-based Joy News.
Additionally, it discovered 700,000 in cash and 1 million cedis in investments in her Societe General account.
According to information from Kissi Agyebeng’s office, $590,000 in cash was found there during the search of her Abelemkpe home.
The same home also yielded the discovery of $2,730,000 in cash.
According to Joy News, OSP has frozen the former Minister’s cedi and dollar accounts while they conduct additional inquiries.
On July 26, the OSP detained Cecilia Abena Dapaah and searched her residence at Cantonments, where she served as a sector minister.
Additionally, her private residence in Abelemkpe, Accra, where the alleged theft occurred between July and October 2022, was searched.
