Acting Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Shippers' Authority, Prof Ransford Gyampo, has responded to claims made by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) regarding his alleged interference in a raid on some offices of Strategic Mobilisation Limited (SML).

In a Facebook post made Sunday, June 22, Prof Gyampo clarified that he did not call the OSP's office, as suggested in a statement released by Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng, but rather contacted Mr Agyebeng directly. "I didn't call your office, I called YOU," Gyampo wrote. "We never spoke on phone because you said you couldn't speak and that you were going to call back." The OSP, in a statement, had earlier alleged that Prof Gyampo had reached out to the Office with calls and messages concerning SML while officers from the OSP and National Security were conducting a lawful search at the company's premises.

The statement, according to the OSP implied that such communication risked interfering with an ongoing investigation.

The OSP statement, however, failed to offer the full details of Prof Gyampo's interaction.
