Dennis Miracles Aboagye, who previously led the Inter-Ministerial Coordinating Committee on Decentralisation, has denied allegations of misusing GH¢55 million.
He described the amount as a propaganda tool without any factual basis in the ongoing investigations against him.
Aboagye made these statements on Asempa FM's Ekosii Sen show.
His comments came shortly after his release from police custody.
The former official maintains his innocence regarding the alleged financial impropriety.
Further details about the investigation were not immediately available.
