Mahama officials must serve with integrity, OSP will come for you too – Amaliba

The Director-General of the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA), Abraham Amaliba, has cautioned officials of the Mahama administration to refrain from engaging in corruption.

His warning comes amid the Special Prosecutor’s pursuit of officials from the Akufo-Addo administration, including former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, over alleged corruption cases.

On February 12, the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) declared Ofori-Atta a suspect in four high-profile corruption investigations, including those related to the National Cathedral project and Strategic Mobilization Limited (SML). Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng also stated that the former minister was now a wanted person and must return immediately for questioning or face legal action.

Speaking in an interview with Selorm Adonoo on Channel One TV, Amaliba urged officials of the Mahama administration to learn from ongoing developments and serve with integrity.

He also advised them against attacking the Special Prosecutor when investigations into their actions begin, emphasizing that no official will be shielded from accountability if found guilty of corruption.

“This is the time that his hands are [Special Prosecutor] free but we government appointees must also know that after he’s done with former executives [officials] he will be coming after us. I don’t know what time he’s going to come, but when the wrongs are committed in our administration and he comes after our people, we mustn’t start calling him names.

“The fact that he’s doing this because people voted for accountability, doesn’t mean that the accountability will not be extended to us who are in power today. And that is the question I want to give to our appointees.”
