The Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Dr Dominic Ayine, has officially withdrawn all charges against former Works and Housing Minister Collins Dauda and four others in the Saglemi Housing Project case.
This was stated in a nolle prosequi notice filed at the High Court (Financial Division 1) in Accra on Friday, February 7, 2025.
The notice indicated that the state would no longer pursue the case against Collins Dauda, Kweku Agyeman-Mensah (former Minister for Water Resources, Works, and Housing), Alhaji Ziblim Yakubu (former Chief Director of the Ministry for Water Resources, Works, and Housing), Nouvi Tetteh Angelo (CEO of Ridge Management Solutions Ghana Limited), and Andrew Clocanas (deceased, former Executive Chairman of Construtora OAS Ghana Limited).
The notice, signed by the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, officially ends the prosecution’s case against the accused.
