Renowned private legal practitioner, Martin Kpebu, has taken a swipe at former Chief Executive Officer of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), Dr Mustapha Abdul-Hamid, who has been charged together with eight others for their alleged involvement in a GH¢280 million extortion and money laundering scheme.

Speaking in an interview on TV3 on July 19, 2025, Kpebu expressed shock over the fact that Dr Mustapha Abdul-Hamid could be implicated in such a matter.

He asserted that the former NPA boss should be the last person to be caught in such a corruption scandal because of his pronouncements before his government came to power. "By all means, the OSP will have something up his sleeves that we don't know about.

Because we all know that it's not a child's play to lay criminal charges on someone.
