Gifty Oware-Mensah, a former Deputy Director of the National Service Authority (NSA) and a current Executive Council member of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), has been detained by the National Investigation Bureau (NIB) in connection with an alleged payroll fraud at the NSA.
Her arrest is part of an ongoing investigation into a ghost-name scandal that has drawn national attention.
Reports indicate that Oware-Mensah was taken into custody on Friday, 7th March 2025, and remains detained despite multiple attempts to secure her bail.
It is alleged that former NPP General Secretary, John Boadu tried to intervene to facilitate her release, but she was later transferred from the NIB premises to an undisclosed location.
