Kpebu says OSP can act on Ofori-Atta case without his return

Lawyer Martin Kpebu thinks government prosecutors can take action against Ken Ofori-Atta without waiting for him to come back home. The former Finance Minister stays at Mayo Clinic in America for cancer treatment right after officials put him on their wanted list. Kpebu talked about this case during a TV3 show on Saturday. He believes prosecutors can travel to America and ask questions there. Legal workers can still file court papers even if Ofori-Atta refuses to talk with them.

Professor Ransford Gyampo wonders if anyone checked whether Ofori-Atta really stays at the medical center. Another expert named Joshua Zaato wants security teams to confirm where the former minister lives. Zaato suggests tracking his passport to find his exact location. These ideas came after Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng declared Ofori-Atta wanted for missing his appointment. Government investigators rejected his request for video meetings because they had not charged him with crimes.

Angela Ofori-Atta defended her husband against claims that he runs away from responsibility. She explained that cancer treatment forced him to stay overseas for his health. The wife said her husband offered to answer questions through video calls or lawyers. She questioned why prosecutors refused these options during his medical recovery. Officials investigate the former Finance Minister for problems with government contracts and money deals from his time serving under President Akufo-Addo.
