The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) is in search of some individuals for their involvement in corruption-related activities especially vote-buying.

The OSP made this known in a post on X with the caption "Wanted persons: The following persons are wanted by the OSP for corruption and corruption-related offences in respect of public elections- especially vote-buying.#OSP #CorruptionAffectsYouDirectly".

According to the OSP, the six men are wanted for allegedly engaging in vote-buying in respect of public elections. Further information, such as the identities of the suspects, was not provided by the OSP.

The post also did not specify which public elections the suspects were involved in, but it comes after the New Patriotic Party (NPP) held its primaries for orphan constituencies over the weekend.

The OSP is a specialised independent anti-corruption institution in Ghana, established in 2018, with the object of investigating and prosecuting specific cases of alleged or suspected corruption and corruption-related offences in the public and private sectors, recovering the proceeds of such acts by disgorging illicit and unexplained wealth and taking steps to prevent corruption. The OSP derives its powers mainly from the Office of the Special Prosecutor Act, 2017 (Act 959) and other laws bearing on the suppression and repression of corruption.
