Former Member of Parliament of Mion, Mohammed Aziz has said the investigations by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) against former Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta is not a "political persecution" by the NDC government.
According to him, the case is being handled by the OSP who was appointed under the erstwhile Akufo-Addo administration; hence it cannot be that the NDC government is going after former state officials.
In an interview on TV3's New Day, Mohammed Aziz that the OSP is only performing its mandate as Ken Ofori-Atta has been alleged to be involved in many corruption-related activities. "In any case this cannot be seen as a political persecution.
After all, it is not the Attorney-General or any NDC officer who has declared him fugitive.
