A former Lands and Natural Resources Minister, Nii Osah Mills is shocked that an audio-visual recording device was hidden in his office by predecessor Inusah Fuseini for over two years without his knowledge.

Nii Osah’s predecessor, Alhaji Inusah Fuseini, has said that he installed the spying device retrieved from the office of the current Minister, John Peter Amewu.

He said that the device was given to him by one Haruna as a gift in his early days as Lands and Natural Resources Minister and that he ordered its installation subsequently to enable him to monitor what went on in his office at the time.

According to him, the hue and cry over the incident was not necessary as the device was not even fully installed.

“It was not working. The installation was not completed,” he told Accra-based Starr FM.

But Nii Osah Mills, who had occupied the office before current Minister John Peter Amewu, said that it is unfortunate that Mr Fuseini did not inform him about the device.

“I used to work the whole day, sometime closed at 9pm or 10pm and certainly I feel almost naked in a sense,” he said.

Having heard about the device for the first time in the news, Nii Osah said: “I’m surprised, absolutely; if you were in my shoes you would be, too. This is not something we expected especially when someone, a colleague, planted it, which is very strange.”

“I ought to have been told and have it removed. I don’t think it was fair that a former minister, a colleague, would plant a device and not inform me. Whether it was working or not, that is not the question,” he said.
