Bribery: Special Prosecutor summons Juaben MCE nominee for questioning

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.”
