March 11, 2021 Mr Jantuah
The Chief Executive Officer of African Energy Consortium Limited, Kwame Jantuah, is astonished over the comment by the President to return the controversial Agyapa Mineral Royalty Limited Agreement to Parliament.
He said that he was shocked by the confidence with which President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo made the comment.
Delivering the State of the Nation Address on Tuesday, President Akufo-Addo stated that “the government will come back to engage the House on the steps it intends to take on the future of the Agyapa transaction.”
The botched deal was flagged as corruption laced by former Special Prosecutor, Martin Amidu and resigned from the post, citing interference in his corruption-risk assessment of the deal by the President.

Haruna Iddrisu, the Minority Leader, who is also a lawyer, seemed visibly surprised when the nominee stated that Mr Martin Amidu did not interview Ken Ofori-Atta, his deputy, Charles Adu Boahen and anybody else involved with the transaction before he concluded his damning report on the transaction in October last year. Mr Yeboah Dame told the Appointments Committee of Parliament on Friday that, at every step of the way, the Ministry of Finance and, for that matter government, put the interest of the nation first and not the interests of any individual, organization or group of persons. “Mr. Chairman, with all respect, I don’t see any vitiating factor with regard to the transaction,” he said.
