The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has launched preliminary investigations into allegations of GH¢70,000 allegedly provided to Patricia Appiagyei for vetting ministerial and Supreme Court nominees. The probe stems from a purported memorandum circulated on social media, allegedly written by Appiagyei, which claims she received the funds as an advance and subsequently returned it.
The OSP is investigating the authenticity of the document, its source, and the purpose of the funds. Second Deputy Minority Whip, Jerry Ahmed Shaib, has dismissed the claims, stating that the letter is fake and Appiagyei has no knowledge of its origin.
