The office of former President John Dramani Mahama has expressed satisfaction with the recent ruling by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), which exonerated him from any wrongdoing in connection with the Airbus scandal.
In a press statement issued on Thursday, August 8, 2024, Mahama’s aide, Joyce Bawah Mogtari, highlighted that the OSP’s ruling confirms what they have always known—Mahama’s integrity and commitment to the principles of honesty and transparency.
The statement emphasized that despite various attempts by the current administration to use the scandal for political gain, the facts of the case have always been transparent and available to the public. It also pointed out that the UK’s Serious Fraud Office had previously clarified that Mahama and those involved had no case to answer.
Furthermore, the statement criticized the current government for continuing to push the narrative against Mahama, despite clear evidence to the contrary. It also noted the OSP’s revelation that President Nana Akufo-Addo had personally requested an investigation into Mahama, which the statement described as an effort to tarnish his reputation.
Mahama’s office reiterated his willingness to cooperate with any investigation and called on Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and President Akufo-Addo to subject themselves to the same level of scrutiny and transparency.
The press statement concluded by reaffirming Mahama’s commitment to Ghana’s progress and his dedication to the fight against corruption. It asserted that Mahama remains undeterred by political opponents’ fabrications and will continue to advocate for a better Ghana for all.
For further inquiries, the statement directed the public to contact Joyce Bawah Mogtari, Special Aide to John Dramani Mahama.
