The Attorney-General and Minister for Justice, Gloria Akuffo, says her office will soon commence the prosecution of former president of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kwesi Nyantakyi after a review of the docket presented by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID).
Mr Nyantakyi was being investigated by the CID for an alleged corrupt conduct following the Anas Aremeyaw Anas’ ‘Number 12’ expose.

But, Miss Akuffo said the prosecution delayed due to the tragic death of a member of Tiger Eye PI, Ahmed Suale who was a principal witness in the matter.
“The documents requested from the police as well as the updated report from Tiger Eye were submitted by the police in May, 2019. But unfortunately, Ahmed Suale’s death stalled the preparation of the case,” she said.
