Former NSA Deputy Director Gifty Oware-Mensah released by NIB

Former Deputy Executive Director of the National Service Authority (NSS), Gifty Oware-Mensah, has been released by the National Investigations Bureau (NIB) after being questioned in connection with an ongoing probe into the ghost names scandal at the NSA.

Oware-Mensah was reportedly arrested on Friday, March 7, and detained briefly before being granted release on Saturday, March 8, after cooperating with investigators.

Sources indicate that her interrogation is part of broader efforts to unravel alleged irregularities within the National Service Scheme.

Citi News has gathered that Oware-Mensah is expected to be recalled for further questioning as investigations progress. However, the full details of her involvement, if any, remain unclear.

The former NSS Deputy Director, who played a key role in the administration and financial oversight of the Scheme, has yet to issue a public statement regarding the matter.

Authorities have not disclosed whether any formal charges will be filed against her.
