Ghana’s former Minister of Finance, Ken Ofori-Atta, has been declared wanted by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP).

The declaration follows his failure to comply with a formal request to report in person for questioning regarding an ongoing investigation.

According to the OSP, Ofori-Atta was summoned in connection with alleged financial irregularities and potential corruption-related offences during his tenure.

Despite being issued multiple notifications, the former finance chief failed to present himself at the designated time, prompting the OSP to declare Ken Ofori-Atta wanted.

The OSP’s investigation into Ken Ofori-Atta is part of a broader effort to address alleged financial mismanagement and questionable transactions that reportedly occurred under his oversight at the Ministry of Finance.

While the specifics of the charges remain confidential due to the sensitive nature of the case, sources close to the investigation indicate that it involves high-value government contracts and offshore fund transfers.

The Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, addressing the media on Monday evening, June 2, 2025, stated that the OSP’s patience with Ken Ofori-Atta has run out, following what he described as repeated delays and noncompliance with ongoing criminal investigations against him.

“This office has always requested his attendance, and we have indicated clearly to him that we are unwilling to waive it. If we were amenable to taking any statement from Ken Ofori-Atta in absentia, we would have done so in February and not waited till June 2, 2025.

“We want him here physically, and we insist on it. A suspect in a criminal investigation does not pick and choose how the investigative body conducts its investigations and the methods suitable to him and his convenience. We will not countenance this conduct, not in this case,” he said.

However, Frank Davies, a prominent member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and legal practitioner, has set the record straight regarding the absence of Ken Ofori-Atta from coming to Ghana to be probed by the OSP.

According to Davies, Ken Ofori-Atta is not being evasive, contrary to speculations circulating in the media and among opposition figures.
