Renowned Ghanaian prophet, Kofi Oduro, has made a bold statement regarding former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, who has faced allegations of financial mismanagement. Despite being removed from the Office of the Special Prosecutor’s (OSP) wanted list, Ofori-Atta remains a controversial figure, with many questioning his handling of public funds during his tenure.
Speaking in a recent sermon, Prophet Oduro asserted that former President John Dramani Mahama possesses the influence and capacity to locate Ofori-Atta and ensure he is held accountable by the new administration. His remarks have sparked widespread discussions, particularly as Mahama positions himself as a key contender in Ghana’s political landscape.
The former Finance Minister, who served under President Nana Akufo-Addo’s administration, has been at the center of multiple financial controversies. Critics have accused him of mismanaging the economy and engaging in questionable financial dealings that have contributed to Ghana’s economic challenges. The Special Prosecutor had previously placed him on a wanted list for further questioning, but his name was later removed, raising suspicions about political maneuvering.
Prophet Oduro’s statement has reignited debates over whether the current government is doing enough to bring past officials to justice. He suggested that Mahama, if willing, could play a pivotal role in ensuring that Ofori-Atta faces questioning, despite his current status.
As Ghana continues to grapple with economic recovery, calls for transparency and accountability remain strong. Many Ghanaians are eager to see whether Mahama will take any steps in response to Prophet Oduro’s challenge or if Ofori-Atta will resurface to address the allegations against him.
