Yaw Danso, the Head of Accounts at the National Service Authority (NSA), has vehemently denied ever being arrested by the National Investigation Bureau in connection with the ghost names payroll scandal that has rocked the institution. 3news.com had reported that the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) had detained Yaw Danso over the scandal.
His purported arrest follows that of Kwaku Ohene Gyan, the former Deputy Director of Operations at NSA, who was taken into custody on February 22, 2025.
Gifty Oware-Mensah, the former Deputy Executive Director of NSA, also remains on the run as authorities intensify their search for suspects linked to the fraudulent payroll scheme.
The ghost names scandal has resulted in significant financial losses for the state, with several high-ranking officials now under investigation.
