Speaking at a press briefing on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng stated that Ofori-Atta had repeatedly refused to honour invitations for questioning regarding ongoing investigations in which he is a suspect.
“Consequently, the OSP declares Ken Nana Yaw Ofori-Atta a wanted person. He is a fugitive from the law,” Agyebeng announced.
According to Agyebeng, Ofori-Atta’s legal team has informed the OSP that he is indefinitely out of the country for medical reasons. However, the Special Prosecutor’s Office appears unconvinced and is determined to ensure his return to face questioning.
The declaration adds a new dimension to the legal challenges facing the former finance minister, as the OSP intensifies its efforts to hold him accountable.
