No one has denied ex-NAFCO boss access to his lawyers - Deputy AG
Dr Justice Srem-Sai, the Deputy Attorney General, said no one had denied the former Chief Executive Officer of the National Food Buffer Stock Company (NAFCO) access to his lawyers following his re-arrest. He stated that Mr Hannan Abdul-Wahab Aludiba, the former NAFCO boss, was re-arrested after an Accra High Court discharged him and his wife, Faiza Seidu Wuni, after the Deputy Attorney General applied for their discharge. Dr Srem-Sai said the former NAFCO boss was sent to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) for immediate interrogation and subsequent release, but he reportedly fell ill and was taken to the hospital.
Dr Srem-Sai said the former NAFCO boss was discharged on Wednesday and was expected to report for interrogation on Thursday. He added that if Mr Godfred Yeboah Dame, the former Attorney General, chose to accompany his client instead of appearing on television and radio programmes, he would better understand the nature of the fresh evidence. Mr Dame had earlier complained that his client, the former NAFCO boss, had been denied access to his lawyers following his re-arrest by officials of EOCO.
The former NAFCO boss, his wife, one Richard Asante, who is currently at large, and two entities are facing charges for allegedly causing financial loss amounting to GH¢61 million. The amount was allegedly intended for the purchase and supply of food items under the National School Feeding component of the Free Senior High School Programme.
