The Office of the Special Prosecutor has denied any involvement in the raid at the residence of former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta.
On Tuesday, February 11, a group of individuals (some in military and police uniforms) raided Mr. Ofori-Atta’s house in cantonment. According to channel one news source, five in military uniforms, one in a police uniform, and the rest in plain clothes—carried out the raid
According to sources, the incident occurred while he was out of the country. Reports further suggest that Ofori-Atta has been in the United States since early 2025 for medical reasons, having formally notified the Chief of Staff of his travel. Eyewitnesses, including a lawyer, also claimed that the men disregarded information that Ofori-Atta and his wife were out of the country and proceeded to ransack the property.
According to the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, the incident was staged by Mr. Ofori-Atta himself in an attempt to mislead the public.
Addressing the press on Wednesday, February 12, Mr. Kissi Agyebeng dismissed the allegations, stating clearly that the OSP was not involved in the raid.

“Mr. Ofori-Atta, the OSP did not raid your house on Tuesday, February 11, 2025, or on any other day. Mr. Ofori-Atta, the OSP did not cause any person, however uniformed, to raid your house on February 11, 2025, or on any other day. That could not have been the OSP, and that is not our style. If the OSP enters your premises, you will not be in doubt as to where the OSP had come from, and your lawyers will not have cause to inquire as to whether it was the OSP,” Kissi Agyebeng disclosed.
