\n
Some prominent Ghanaians including former Auditor-General Daniel Yaw Domelevo have petitioned Parliament seeking a bipartisan probe into the conduct of the Economic and Organised Office (EOCO) in the investigation regarding the stash of money found in the residence of former Sanitation Minister Cecilia Dapaah.<\/p>\n
The group, which also has outspoken anti-graft campaigner Martin Kpebu, Security analyst Dr Adam Bona, academic Professor Ransford Gyampo and over 100 other Ghanaians spanning different walks of life, argue in their petition that EOCO had more than enough basis to investigate the former Minister for money laundering as she has been inconsistent and unable to provide the source over the huge amount of money seized at her residence by the Special Prosecutor.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe failure to explain the source of the money should have been the cornerstone of the investigation,\u201d the petition which was submitted to Parliament on Thursday, May 16, 2024, noted among others.<\/p>\n
It also raised concerns about what the group described as the deliberate refusal by EOCO to take steps to protect the money which had been seized from the residence of the former minister by the OSP.<\/p>\n
\u201cUpon receipt of the docket, EOCO did not act timeously to seize the money that the OSP was returning to Madam Cecilia Dapaah as publicly stated by the OSP\u201d.<\/p>\n
The petition also said EOCO has been inconsistent with their public commentary and actions in the investigation.<\/p>\n
The development comes in the wake of the standoff between the state anti-corruption agencies investigating the former Minister over the stash of money.<\/p>\n
The OSP is on record to have stated that EOCO lacks the appetite to probe the matter despite the detailed information it shared with them.<\/p>\n
