The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has launched preliminary inquiries into claims that GH¢70,000 was paid to Deputy Minority Leader and Asokwa MP Patricia Appiagyei during parliamentary vetting procedures. This follows the circulation of a memo purportedly written by Madam Appiagyei to the Minority Chief Whip, accusing her of receiving the funds as an advance from the Majority Chief Whip, and subsequently returning it, citing uncertainty over its source and a desire to avoid financial gain from the vetting process.
