Kofi Tonto has denied claims linking him to an alleged $19 million fraud at Ghana's Embassy in Washington. He issued a statement to address the allegations.
Mr Tonto stated that a payment he received years ago was for child benefits. He insisted this payment was not connected to any illegal activities.
The allegations suggest a fraudulent scheme involving funds at the embassy. Mr Tonto has become aware of online reports detailing these claims.
He is a communicator for the New Patriotic Party (NPP). His statement aims to clear his name regarding the accusations.
The specific details of the alleged fraud have not been fully disclosed by authorities.
Further investigation into the matter is expected.
