Former Deputy Executive Director of the National Service Scheme, Gifty Oware-Mensah, a member of the Executive Council of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), has returned to Ghana after a brief time away from the country.
Oware-Mensah, who previously served under the Akufo-Addo government, has remained out of the public eye since the 2024 general elections.
Amid allegations linking her to the NSS payroll scandal, reports suggested she had fled to evade accountability.
However, in a statement on Friday, February 28, 2025, her legal team, Sarkodie Baffour Awuah and Partners, clarified that she had simply taken a post-election break.
