The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) has been asked to look into allegations made by Arise Ghana convener Bernard Mornah and four other people that former sanitation minister Cecilia Dapaah acquired assets that exceeded her income.
The four others—Thompson, Al-Hassan Kwadwo Baidoo, Joyce Atitso, Ransford Antwi, and Mensah—are demanding an extensive investigation into the former Minister’s financial affairs.
The appeal concerns the large amounts of money—$1 million, €300,000, and GH¢350,000—as well as the expensive purses and jewelry worth $35,000 and $95,000 that her house helpers stole from her residence.
Her resignation was due to the public outcry following the incident in July of 2023.
The petitioners have requested that CHRAJ examine Madam Dapaah’s assets, which include bank accounts in both dollars and cedis, as well as $1,390,000, €300,000, and GH₵3,212,007, in their request dated May 20.
