Deputy general secretary of the National Democratic Congress and Deputy director in charge of operations at the presidency Mustapha Gbandi has accused former President Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo Addo for employing a foreigner to manage the country’s finances.
According to him, former finance minister Mr. Ken Ofori Atta was a foreigner who was appointed by former president Nana Addo.
Speaking on Okay fm’s Ade Akye Abia programme, he explained that Mr. Ken Ofori Atta’s preparedness to evade accountability clearly shows that he is not ready to avail himself to answer to the laws of this country over alleged financial misconduct charges leveled against him.
But trust me, he will not evade justice, the law will eventually catch up with him and he will be made to face the court of law
Lawyers for former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta are claiming that a United States immigration court has approved his application for adjustment of status, granting him approval for a Green Card through the I-485 process.
Sources has, however, yet to independently verify the claim made by the legal team regarding the outcome of the immigration proceedings.
According to the lawyers, the decision allows Mr Ofori-Atta to proceed with obtaining lawful permanent residency in the United States, where he is currently based. The claim, if confirmed, would mark a significant development in his ongoing legal and immigration situation.
Sources familiar with the case say the application was considered within the framework of US immigration law, specifically the I-485 process, which allows eligible applicants already in the United States to adjust their status to permanent residency without leaving the country.
The reported ruling is also said to have referenced concerns raised around the circumstances of criminal proceedings initiated against Mr Ofori-Atta in Ghana. These include actions by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), which previously declared him a fugitive from justice while he was reportedly receiving medical treatment in the United States and in contact with investigators through his legal representatives.
