Nana Akomea, former Chief Executive of the InterCity State Transport Corporation, has appealed to Ghana’s Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, to exercise understanding in the ongoing case involving former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta as per reports from Ghana Web on Thursday, June 5, 2025.

The call comes amid renewed efforts by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) to have Ofori-Atta face legal proceedings.

On June 2, 2025, the Special Prosecutor announced that Ofori-Atta had been declared “wanted” again, despite information from the former minister’s legal team that he is battling cancer.

Kissi Agyebeng stated that no official medical documentation confirming Ofori-Atta’s health status had been submitted to his office.

Speaking on Peace FM’s “Kokrokoo” program, Nana Akomea questioned the rationale behind the declaration, highlighting the widely known health challenges faced by Ofori-Atta.

“By declaring him wanted, what’s next? Does it mean you won’t send him to court?” he queried, urging the Special Prosecutor to show patience and compassion given the circumstances.

Akomea revealed the importance of empathy in handling sensitive cases, particularly when the individual involved is seriously ill.

He encouraged Kissi Agyebeng to adopt a more considerate approach, saying, “He should be a bit more sympathetic with Ken Ofori-Atta.”
