The former minister, Edwin Nii Lante Vanderpuye, was referred to the security body over some GHC 1.6 million he allegedly paid to a contractor by the previous administration.

The payment was supposed to be for the construction of the New Edubiase Sports Stadium but the payment wasn’t captured in 2015 and 2016 budget statements.
