Ghanaian media personality and former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Ltd (GACL), Paul Adom-Otchere, has criticised the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) for what he describes as an inconsistent approach in handling investigations involving persons outside the country, particularly former finance minister Ken Ofori-Atta.
According to Adom-Otchere, the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, set a precedent when his office flew abroad to interview Samuel Adam Mahama, brother of President , in connection with an alleged corruption in the Airbus scandal.
He argued that a similar approach should be taken in Ofori-Atta's case rather than relying on press conferences and public declarations.
Speaking on his Good Evening Ghana show, Adom-Otchere said; "If you were able to do this for somebody who didn't hold public office, for somebody from whom we didn't even know how much could be recovered, and you flew abroad to interview him, why can't you do the same for Ken Ofori-Atta? "You flew to London to interview Samuel Adam Mahama but now you're telling us Ken Ofori-Atta has $58 million stuck in the National Cathedral issue that you're trying to retrieve.
