The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has called for a public inquiry into the controversial “Holy Rain” scandal surrounding the Aksa Energy power project in Ghana. The party's demand follows the conviction of Asante Kwaku Berko, a former Goldman Sachs employee, in the United States for his role in facilitating bribe payments to Ghanaian officials between 2014 and 2016.
This inquiry is aimed at tracing the payments, beneficiaries, intermediaries, and official decisions linked to the project during Ghana’s power crisis. Nana Adjei Baffour Awuah, a Manhyia South MP, emphasized that the inquiry should establish the identities and official roles of those involved in the Aksa project and its approvals in 2015, aiming to clear the names of those who may be innocent and provide insights into recurring issues.
