NSS Scandal: Osei Assibey Antwi Bribed an MP over Ghost Names- Attorney-General
The Attorney-General, Dr Dominic Ayine, has alleged that the former Director-General of the National Service Authority (NSA), Osei Assibey Antwi bribed a Member of Parliament to cover up fraudulent enlistment of non-existent personnel onto the NSA payroll.
Addressing the media on Monday, March 24, 2025, over the development, he said his outfit possessed substantive evidence to that effect.
“We now have evidence of payments that were made into the accounts of top executives of the National Service by private vendors and staff of the scheme. We also have evidence that in November 2024, the CEO of the NSS and others paid a Ghanaian MP to kill the story in the media and to defend them. This is a developing story and more will come soon.”
The Minister for Justice indicated that eight suspects have so far been interrogated.
“A good number of them have started singing literally. We will give you details of their songs at the appropriate time.”
He said significant work is going on in relation to this and other investigations and assured that they would be concluded by the middle of April for prosecutions to begin.
