Third National Vice Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Alhaji Masawud Osman, has levied accusations against the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), claiming political bias and proposing a reevaluation of its effectiveness.
Alhaji Osman alleges that 60% of the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) staff maintains affiliations with the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), raising concerns about potential influences on prosecutions.
He censured Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng, casting doubt on his impartiality and advocating for an inquiry into his suitability for the position.
Alhaji Osman additionally asserted that Agyebeng has considerably enlarged the staff of the OSP but has achieved minimal results in the fight against corruption.
He accused Agyebeng of unfairly targeting the NPP, citing the investigation into alleged irregularities at the Customs Division under the current government.
He said the focus solely on auctions from 2016 to 2022 raises questions about why similar events under the previous NDC administration haven't been investigated.
Additionally, Alhaji Osman criticized the disparity in the OSP's handling of allegations of vote-buying. He noted the probe launched into the NPP parliamentary primaries while no similar action was taken regarding accusations against the NDC.
