While Gyan faces questioning, Gifty Oware-Mensah, another senior figure linked to the scandal, remains on the run. Reports suggest she fled the country amid allegations of her role in padding the NSA payroll with over 80,000 fictitious names during her tenure as Deputy Executive Director of the National Service Scheme.
The manhunt has intensified, with police urging the public to provide any information that could lead to her capture, raising concerns about accountability at the highest levels.
This scandal has sent shockwaves through Ghana, exposing vulnerabilities in the oversight of critical agencies. The government has promised a thorough investigation, with officials vowing to root out corruption and restore public trust. As the case unfolds, it underscores the urgent need for reforms to prevent such abuses, with citizens watching closely to see if justice will be served beyond Gyan’s arrest.
