The Chairperson of the Public Accounts Committee of Parliament, Abena Osei Asare, has cautioned the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) to exercise its mandate with professionalism.
Speaking to recent investigations including the former finance minister, Kenneth Ofori-Atta, by the OSP on JoyNews on June 9, 2025, she cautioned the anti-graft agency to be wary of breaching the human rights of people.
Abena Osei Asare explained that in its efforts to demand public accountability from certain individuals, the OSP, despite being established to fight corruption, must execute its mandate without violating individual's rights.
According to her, acting contrary to these principles while exercising its mandate could undermine the very purpose of corruption fight and the promotion of accountability. "I believe that in whatever we do, professionalism is key.
