Air Bus Scandal, John Mahama Cleared by Special Prosecutor.

The Airbus scandal, a significant talking point during the 2016 general election in Ghana, has taken a new turn with the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) clearing former President John Mahama of any wrongdoing. The scandal, which involved allegations of corruption concerning the purchase of military aircraft from Airbus, was a major factor in the 2016 election, contributing to Mahama’s defeat by over one million votes. At the time, the then-opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) capitalized on the scandal, painting Mahama as corrupt and unfit for office.

OSP’s Investigation and Findings

In a surprising development, the OSP, led by the Special Prosecutor Mr. Kissi Agyebeng, concluded its investigation and found no evidence of criminal conduct or wrongdoing on Mahama’s part. The investigation was initiated following a referral from President Nana Akufo-Addo, who had asked the OSP to probe the matter in light of the serious allegations made against the former president. The OSP’s report has since sparked a wide range of reactions across the country.

Mixed Reactions from the Public

The OSP’s decision to clear Mahama has led to a divided public response. Supporters of Mahama and some independent observers have praised the OSP for conducting a thorough and unbiased investigation. They argue that the OSP’s findings vindicate Mahama, proving that the allegations against him were politically motivated rather than based on concrete evidence. Among those who have commended the OSP is the former Auditor General, Mr. Daniel Yaw Domelevo, who lauded the Special Prosecutor for upholding professionalism and independence in the face of political pressure. Domelevo emphasized that the OSP’s ability to clear Mahama, despite the sitting president’s requested investigation, demonstrates the office’s commitment to fairness and justice.

Opposition and Criticism

However, not everyone agrees with the OSP’s findings. Critics, particularly those aligned with the ruling NPP and some civil society groups, have expressed dissatisfaction with the outcome of the investigation. One of the most vocal critics is Ernest Owusu-Bempah, leader of the Fixing the Country Movement, who held a press conference to denounce the OSP’s report. Owusu-Bempah labeled the investigation as a “whitewash,” accusing the OSP of failing to fulfill its mandate effectively despite the resources allocated to the office to combat corruption. He argued that the OSP had missed an opportunity to hold powerful individuals accountable and that the report did not reflect the reality of the situation.

Implications for the 2024 Elections

As Ghana approaches the 2024 general elections, the OSP’s report is likely to remain a contentious issue. Mahama, who is expected to be a key contender in the election, may use the OSP’s clearance to bolster his campaign, presenting himself as a victim of unfounded accusations and a leader committed to integrity. On the other hand, his opponents may continue to question the credibility of the OSP’s findings and use the controversy to cast doubt on his character.

The divided opinions on the OSP’s report highlight the polarized nature of Ghanaian politics and the challenges of addressing corruption allegations in a highly charged electoral environment. As the nation moves closer to the 2024 elections, the Airbus scandal and the OSP’s investigation are likely to remain in the spotlight, influencing public discourse and voter perceptions.

  8. I do enjoy the manner in which you have framed this specific concern plus it does indeed offer me a lot of fodder for thought. Nevertheless, because of what I have seen, I basically hope when other reviews pack on that people continue to be on point and in no way embark upon a soap box associated with the news of the day. All the same, thank you for this fantastic piece and whilst I can not agree with it in totality, I regard the viewpoint.

  57. Throughout the grand pattern of things you’ll get an A+ for hard work. Where you actually confused me personally ended up being on the particulars. You know, people say, details make or break the argument.. And it couldn’t be more correct right here. Having said that, allow me inform you just what exactly did do the job. The article (parts of it) is certainly very convincing which is most likely why I am making the effort to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, whilst I can see a jumps in reasoning you make, I am not necessarily certain of how you appear to connect the points which in turn produce your conclusion. For now I will subscribe to your position however hope in the near future you connect your facts much better.

  58. They say: Lightweight, moisturizing makeup covers thoroughly without clogging pores. Skin breathes comfortably, color stays true, even through sweat and humidity. Due to the rich pigment level that enhances this flawless-coverage makeup, shades may appear deeper when first applied. Once blended completely and allowed to dry, Beyond Perfecting Makeup will melt into your skin for a Beyond Perfected flawless look. A little goes a long way. How to use: Apply fewer pumps and blend using your fingertips for a light, radiant finish or apply more layers to build up the coverage. Follow with your favourite shade of Conceal & Hydrate Concealer to highlight or conceal. The conceal and hydrate foundation is really hydrating and has some amazing coverage for a glowy foundation, just as revolution claims. I’ve been really impressed with how well it covers up imperfections whilst still staying glowy and keeping your skin looking and feeling hydrated. Usually with cheaper foundations it’s coverage, a glowy finish or hydration, not all three.
