Kissi Agyebeng, the Special Prosecutor, has summoned Alex Sarfo Kantanka, the Municipal Chief Executive nominee for Juaben in the Ashanti Region, for questioning in the aftermath of a viral video in which he allegedly demanded a refund of bribes paid to assembly members for his confirmation.
As a result, he has been directed to appear at the Special Prosecutor’s office in Accra at 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 9, 2021, for an interview.
Excerpts of the letter read:
“The Office of the Special Prosecutor has commenced investigations into allegations of corruption and corruption-related offences (especially corruption and intimidation in respect of a public election) particularly about your Alex Sarfo Kantanka’s nomination and confirmation or otherwise as to the Municipal Chief Executive of Juaben Municipality in the Ashanti Region.”
