Former Minister of Trade and Industry, Kobina Tahir Hammond, has announced his intention to pursue legal action against the Finance Minister and the Auditor-General. This action follows the release of a report that reportedly implicates Mr Hammond in financial misconduct.
Mr Hammond has publicly denied all allegations made against him. He described the claims as baseless and false during a television interview.
The former minister stated that he did nothing wrong. He has committed to clearing his name through the legal process.
The specific details of the alleged wrongful financial transactions have not been fully disclosed. The Auditor-General's report is the basis for these claims.
The Finance Ministry has also been named in Mr Hammond's planned legal challenge. Further details on the lawsuit are expected to be released.
