Former ORAL Committee member Martin Kpebu has disputed claims that the government could recover up to $21.19 billion from allegedly stolen state assets. The former chairman of the committee, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, had suggested that the recoverable amount could exceed the financial aid Ghana was seeking from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
However, Kpebu maintains that this figure was a personal estimate by Ablakwa and not a collective decision made by the committee members. He emphasized that the committee had not conducted any assessment to determine the total value of assets or funds that could be recovered and that Ablakwa's comment was made on a conditional basis.
