Kwabena Donkor, who previously served as the Minister of Power, has publicly stated he did not receive any money from Kwaku Asante Berko. Asante Berko is a former banker with Goldman Sachs Group Inc.
Asante Berko was recently convicted in the United States. The conviction is related to paying over $1 million in bribes.
These bribes were reportedly paid to help develop a power plant in Ghana. The details of the conviction were made public through court filings.
Donkor's statement addresses the allegations directly. He denies any involvement in financial transactions with Asante Berko concerning the power plant deal.
The former minister's denial comes after the conviction of the former banker.
