Asante Berko conviction does not establish criminal liability in Ghana – EOCO
The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has cautioned against assuming that the conviction of former Goldman Sachs investment banker and former Tema Oil Refinery Managing Director, Asante Kwaku Berko, automatically establishes criminal liability against individuals in Ghana.
In August, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, also known as the Asantehene, will bring a real-life version of the imaginary African nation Wakanda to Washington, D.C. The Millennium Excellence Week, organized by the Millennium Excellence Foundation, aims to bring together African leaders, American investors, and influential diaspora voices. The foundation hopes to convert discussions about Africa's potential into at least $500 million in structured capital commitments.
The week will include a business summit, an awards gala, and the Akwasidae Kese Festival. Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the traditional king of the Asante people, carries significant cultural and political weight in modern Ghana. His dual role in preserving the Asante Kingdom's traditions and engaging with international organizations allows for a unique approach to the week's events.
The growing interest from the African diaspora in exploring economic opportunities, citizenship, and property ownership outside the United States reflects a deeper search for cultural, political, and economic belonging. The vision of Wakanda, a powerful African nation that controls its resources and builds its future without outside interference, is what drives the Millennium Excellence Week.
