The Deputy Presidential Spokesperson, Shamima Muslim, has noted that the alleged raid that happened at the residence of the former Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr Ernest Addison is part of the processes involved in an ongoing investigation.

She said even though she did not have details of the raid, she believed it was a move to gather information.

“I’m yet to get to the office to receive a full briefing on the matter but what I can say is that there are some actions going on. There are persons of interest who will be now and again invited to help the investigation process.

“There are means of gathering information, and one of the means is to visit the homes of these persons of interest,” she was quoted by 3news.com.

National Security operatives on March 19, 2025, raided the home of former Bank of Governor, Dr Ernest Addison.

This is part of about three raids by the National Security since the beginning of President Mahama’s tenure.

Muslim said the raid must be conducted by following due process regardless of who is involved.

“I will just say that we should execute these processes with recourse to due process and once we are doing that, we should have no problem,” she added.

She emphasized that the “cheap propaganda” being perpetrated by the Minority should be disregarded.

“However, we should also be mindful of how the Minority would always deliberately position themselves to be averse to any action that the government takes in its quest to demand audit and accountability of the outgone government, sometimes exaggerating the issue and trying to deliberately misrepresent the action that is being taken.

“The misplaced propaganda and mischief are obvious because their intention is to entrench themselves within the system so they can leverage to sabotage. It is their grand agenda,” she said.
