OSP secures approval to serve Ofori-Atta, Akore with SML case summons in US

The High Court in Accra has granted the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) approval to serve former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta and his former Chief of Cabinet, Ernest Darko Akore, with summons in the United States in the ongoing Strategic Mobilisation Limited (SML) case.

Proceedings in a number of OSP cases had been stalled since April 2026 following a High Court ruling that questioned the Office’s authority to prosecute.

The latest development follows the Supreme Court’s unanimous decision upholding the constitutional validity of the Office of the Special Prosecutor Act, 2017 (Act 959).
