Some individuals have petitioned against the Finance Minister-designate, Ken Ofori-Atta and former Energy Minister, John Peter Amewu for their roles in dubiously cooking a deal that robbed Ghana of a significant stake in the crude oil concession operated by Aker Energy. Ken Ofori-Atta and Peter Amewu had reportedly smuggled private company, Quad Energy into the deal and used it to knock off as much as 39% from the stakes of Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC).  The petitioners had wanted the Parliamentary Appointment Committee to stall the appointment of Ken Ofori-Atta and Peter Amewu until they answered the lingering questions around their reported involvement in shortchanging Ghana in the Aker Energy deal.
