Paul Adom-Otchere, the former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), has broken his silence after he was detained by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP).
According to Paul Adom-Otchere, he was not maltreated by anyone, as it was a normal place where the OSP detain Ghanaians.
He revealed that he was in a room with other people, with the facility having basic conditions.
Speaking on The Point of View on Channel One TV, August 4, Paul Adom-Otchere detailed, “It’s a normal place they detain every Ghanaian. You are detained with people who are also detained. Nobody maltreated anyone. That is for sure. It’s a state-owned”
“Yes, yes, you will be in a room with other people. It depends on the numbers they have, usually about 25 people, not in the same room. I was in a room with other people.”
He added that the detainees were given basic necessities.
“They give you a mattress, yes, for now, it’s a double mattress, I think, because of the floor, and they give you a blanket; they treat you well. They provide clothes. I wasn’t due for a change of clothes yet because it was overnight. And by mid-day, they said we should get ready,” he explained.
Paul Adom-Octhere also added that access to the outside world was not allowed.
“You can’t contact anyone,” he revealed.
Paul Adom-Otchere further clarified that his supporters were protesting bail terms, not defending wrongdoing.
He added, “All those people whom I said thank you to, who’d expressed concern, I have seen some spin on social media. They were not expressing the concern that Paul Adom-Otchere has done something wrong, and he is above the law, and you cannot touch.
“No! They were expressing concern that the bail conditions that the OSP gave were too harsh and unreasonable, and actually unknown to the jurisprudence,” he explained.
Meanwhile, Sammy Darko Appiah, the Director of Strategy, Research and Communication at the Office of the Special Prosecutor, has revealed that Paul Adom-Otchere is a key suspect in the OSP’s ongoing investigation into the GACL revenue.
According to Sammy Darko, the OSP has come across evidence that directly points to certain actions of Adom-Otchere as a board chairman that fall in line with the offences.
However, Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare, the managing director of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), has ended the scandalous revenue assurance contract with Evatex Logistics.
The information gathered suggests Evatex Logistics Limited, a company affiliated with SML, has been served with a termination letter on 28th July 2025.
Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare also revealed that no payments have been made to date to Evatex Logistics.
Evatex Logistics Ltd was contracted by GACL to provide revenue assurance services in regard to cargo at Kotoka International Airport.
Background
The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) ordered Paul Adom-Otchere to present himself for questioning in a revenue assurance audit deal.
