Martin Luther Kpebu, a private legal practitioner has disclosed that a niece of Cecilia Dapaah revealed that she (Cecilia) distributed $10K to passengers in order to bring $200k into the country.
According to him, one of the persons who submitted a statement on the matter to the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) is a niece of Madam Cecilia Dapaah’s husband, Mr Daniel Osei-Kufuor.
He said the niece, who he did not name, became a person of interest because Mr Osei-Kufuor mentioned her as the one who gave him a sum of $200,000 for keeps. An amount which was also allegedly stolen by the house helps who are currently being prosecuted for stealing.
Mr Kpebu disclosed that in her statement that is included in the docket that the OSP submitted to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), Mr Osei-Kufuor’s niece wrote how she managed to bring the above-mentioned amount into the country.
“She wrote in her statement that when she was coming to Ghana, she distributed the $200,000 dollars in bits of $10,000 to some of the passengers on the plane she boarded. And upon arrival in Ghana, she retrieved the monies from them. Such cock and bull story. It is in the docket and Tiwaa says there is nothing to prosecute? Mr Kpebu asked.
Mr Kpebu mentioned this, among other staggering details as reason for which he and other Ghanaians have petitioned Parliament to look into the case of large sums of money found in the home the former Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources.
He said they want Parliament to set up a bi-partisan committee to investigate how the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) failed to do its work with “such glaring evidence that point to money laundering.”
To Kpebu, there is more to be investigated in relation to this matter involving Cecilia Dapaah.
“We want Parliament to set up a bipartisan committee to investigate how EOCO reneged on its duty to investigate Cecilia Dapaah.
“When we see money of this quantum in the home it points to money laundering, so go into the sources of the income,” he said on the Key Points on TV3 Saturday May 18.
