General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, has asked President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to sack his two Deputy Chiefs of Staff, Francis Asenso-Boakye and Samuel Abu Jinapor.
Similarly, he has called for the removal of the Deputy Director of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID), ACP Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah.
His call follows revelations that the Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police Service, which investigated corruption allegations against the two government officials may have covered up for them. The allegation was made by musician, Kwame A-Plus.
Speaking on the development in an interview with Chief Jerry Forson, host of Ghana Yensom on Accra 100.5FM on Friday, September 29, Mr Nketia said: “In other jurisdictions, the CID boss would have resigned by now, but since that has not been done I will call on those officials to be removed from office for a thorough investigation to be conducted into the matter.
“Abu Jinapor and Asenso must be sacked from their positions until thorough investigations have been conducted into the matter. From what is happening, clearly there has been a cover up in the initial investigations.”
Meanwhile, a group calling itself Dynamic Youth Movement of Ghana (DYMOG) has dragged Deputy Chiefs of Staff, Francis Asenso-Boakye and Samuel Abu Jinapor, to the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) for them to be investigated in connection with corruption allegations levelled against them by musician, Kwame A-Plus.
