Ghana's former Minister for Sanitation and Water Resources Cecilia Dapaah has been arrested by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) after the reported theft of $1m (£780,000), €300,000, and millions of cedis cash from her house.
According to the OSP, the former minister was placed under house arrest on Sunday 22nd July on “suspected corruption and corruption-related offences”.
Many Ghanaians and anti-corruption campaigners have questioned how a public servant could have so much money stashed in their home amid an economic crisis in Ghana.
“Ms Dapaah is being questioned by authorised Officers of the OSP,” the statement on Monday reads.
Ghana's President Nana Akufo-Addo accepted her resignation on Saturday following a public outcry.
