Full Text: Ekow Assafuah petitions CHRAJ to probe alleged visa irregularities for 2026 World Cup
I ask it to investigate the relevant records, require explanations from the appropriate public institutions and determine whether corruption, abuse of power, administrative injustice or other misconduct within its mandate has occurred.
Ekow Assafuah has submitted a petition to the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) seeking an independent investigation into alleged corruption, abuse of public power, conflicts of interest, and administrative irregularities related to the allocation and management of 2026 FIFA World Cup visa opportunities.
The petition, filed in accordance with Ghana's 1992 Constitution and the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice Act of 1993, calls for a thorough examination of the decisions, procedures, and accountability mechanisms of the National Sports Authority (NSA), Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA), and the Ministry of Sports and Recreation.
Assafuah asserts that the circumstances surrounding these arrangements are serious enough to warrant the Commission's attention, highlighting concerns about the transparency and fairness of the beneficiary selection process, the handling of payments, and the adequacy of accountability mechanisms.
