CID clears deputy chiefs of staff; says A Plus' allegations are baseless

The musician and NPP sympathizer, A Plus, had made corruption allegations against the two deputy chiefs of staff.

The two Deputy Chiefs of Staff - Abu Jinapor and Asenso-Boakye – have since been cleared of any wrongdoing by the CID.

A statement issued and signed by the Director General of the Police CID, Bright Oduro said after weeks of investigations it was obvious that the allegations by A Plus lack credibility.

The Police CID launched investigations into the allegations and found as follows “That on August 27, 2017, A Plus made allegations of corruption and thievery against Messers Asenso Boakye and Jinapor on his facebook post.

“The allegations of thievery was dropped by A-Plus but that of corruption was maintained,” the statement said.

A Plus had cited an intervention by the two Chiefs of Staff on a matter involving the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital.

“That following a petition by Unibank Ghana Limited to the effect that the management of Korle Bu had abrogated an existing MOU with them without any reason and that the Korle Bu had not treated them fairly, Messers Asenso-Boakye and Jinapor among others intervened to seek clarity from the hospital’s management regarding the said petition,” the statement said.

But the Police CID said it did not find the intervention by the two as illegal or inconsistent with the laws of the country, adding that “the allegation of corruption of corruption was found to be baseless, unsubstantiated and without credibility.”
