Court strikes out threat case against Ayitey Powers
According to the prosecution, on August 18, 2026, the Greater Accra Regional Police Command intercepted the viral video, which showed Okai allegedly issuing the threat against Mr Ampofo Ankrah.
Chief Inspector Christopher Wonder, who led the prosecution, told the court that the Greater Accra Regional Police Command had received a letter from Mr Ampofo Ankrah indicating his decision not to pursue the matter.
The court, presided over by Ms Nancy Teiko Searyoh, discharged Okai after the prosecution informed it that the complainant, Mr Yaw Ampofo Ankrah, Director-General of the National Sports Authority (NSA), was no longer interested in pursuing the case.
