The issue apparently involves the installation of ghost names on the NSA payroll, which resulted in enormous financial losses for the state.

Meanwhile, Gifty Oware-Mensah has gone into hiding, with authorities aggressively attempting to locate and detain her for questioning.

Ohene Gyan's legal team is scheduled to meet with him tomorrow to discuss the situation and any legal alternatives for his release.

This arrest comes as part of a broader government crackdown on corruption, following the recent detention of Prof. Christopher Ameyaw-Akumfi, the former Chairman of the Ghana Infrastructure Investment Fund (GIIF), who was involved in the $2 million Sky Train affair.

With Gifty Oware-Mensah on the run, security authorities are intensifying their efforts to locate all people linked to the NSA payroll theft.
