The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) of Parliament has instructed the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition to initiate the arrest of Yaa Serwaa Gyan, a geologist who abandoned her post after benefiting from study leave with pay without honouring her bond.
The 2024 Auditor-General’s Report revealed that her failure to return to duty left an outstanding bond value of GH¢120,000.
Ranking Member of the Committee, Samuel Atta-Mills, tasked the Ministry to report back within 30 days on steps taken to enforce the directive.
“If she has gone to the USA, get the police involved, and we will find her in the US. The government cannot pay for people to go for study leave and then, when they finish, they abscond. That is not fair,” Atta-Mills stated.
He further urged the Ministry to ensure the guarantor of the bond is also held accountable, adding that the public must be updated within the given timeframe.
