The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has summoned Paul Adom-Otchere, former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), as part of a corruption investigation into a revenue assurance audit contract awarded during his tenure.
According to official records, the OSP’s July 25 summons requires Adom-Otchere to answer questions regarding alleged procurement breaches and suspected corruption in a contract between GACL and a private firm. The probe examines compliance with procurement laws and transparency standards.
Adom-Otchere confirmed receipt but requested rescheduling to August 4 due to prior court commitments in Kumasi. He expressed dismay at being singled out, though the OSP identified him as a suspect.
The investigation aligns with the OSP’s intensified scrutiny of state-owned enterprises under President Mahama’s administration. While GACL has not commented, the case highlights ongoing efforts to enforce ethical governance in public procurement.
