Prof Mrs Angela Ofori-Atta, wife of former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, has assured Ghanaians that her husband has no intention of obstructing or delaying investigations into allegations of corruption levelled against him.
Speaking in an interview with Joy News on Monday, 16th June 2025, Prof Ofori-Atta stated that her husband is prepared to engage fully with the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), including via virtual platforms, as he continues to recover from prostate cancer surgery.
“The questions, he can answer them in a week or two. Send him the questions through his lawyers—he can answer. Set up a video meeting, and he will be able to answer,” she said. “He will not do anything to interfere or prolong the investigation.”
Her remarks follow growing public interest in the ongoing investigation involving Mr Ofori-Atta, who served as Ghana’s Finance Minister from 2017 to 2024. The case has gained prominence following the issuance of an Interpol red notice and allegations of financial mismanagement, abuse of office, and questionable offshore dealings during his time in office.
Prof Ofori-Atta emphasised that while her husband is physically unable to return to Ghana at present, due to medical advice, he remains committed to due process and accountability.
Earlier, she revealed that the former minister had recently undergone successful prostate cancer surgery and is under strict medical supervision.
While some critics have questioned the timing of his medical disclosures, with suggestions of evading justice, the family maintains that Mr Ofori-Atta has nothing to hide and is cooperating fully within the limits of his current health condition.
“He cannot come to the country physically until medical advice proves that he can engage in physical travel,” she explained. “But Ghana is home. He is not running.”
