President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is said to have reported the conduct of the President of the Ghana Football Association, Kwesi Nyantakyi to the police following the latest expose by ace investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas, Peacefmonline can confirm.
Kwasi Nyantakyi is believed to be engaged in some fraudulent activity using the name of the President.
Deputy Chief of Staff, Samuel Abu Jinapor in an interview with Dan Kweku Yeboah on Peace FM confirmed the story saying the President tasked the security agencies to investigate the GFA capo after having watched portions of Anas Aremeyaw Anas's latest expose titled: "Number 12: When Misconduct And Greed Become The Worm".
"The footage indicated that Kwesi Nyantakyi used the name of the President to defraud some people; constituting defrauding by false pretenses..." he indicated.
According to Abu Jinapor, after the President finished watching the video he could not help but direct the Criminals Investigative Department (CID) to issue an arrest warrant for Kwesi Nyantakyi.
"...he ordered the CID to arrest him to assist in investigation and then the next step will be taken. The president is the custodian of the law and he’s not biased. No matter who you are, once you are wrong, he will hand you over to the law. He has demonstrated that his determination to fight corruption and crime is unquestionable" he noted.
Mr Jinapor was asked if the President is on the right course since the GFA is deemed autonomous. In response he said: "GFA is not an island when it comes to the criminal laws of Ghana and so an action can be taken and that is what has been done. Nobody will be allowed to go scot free if found guilty"
Meanwhile unconfirmed reports indicate that the amount involved in the alleged fraudulent act is $8m: $5m is supposed to be for President Akufo-Addo and $3m for Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

Since yesterday, I have had sober reflection about the issue, and I have come to the conclusion that the swiftness with which the president ordered the arrest of nyantakyi means he is clearly an accomplice. He really gave nyantakyi the go ahead to swindle investors into his pocket. He pretends to be incorruptible but he is very deep in this, especially where nyantakyi is his bosom friend.
Whenever a serious corruption case comes up then, somehow something happens at the presidency to cover it up. Ghana
It is clear the president, Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo has been exposed. He is just trying desperately to save the situation but the damage is already done. They cannot be too hard on Nyantakyi because I am sure the guy has a lot to say, which can destroy the government. This is going to be another WOYOME. It will die a natural death without anybody being punished, because if any body should be punished it should be the president and his vice. And the opposition cannot make any serious noise because they are equally sitting on explosives. Ghana beyond aids indeed, what a joke!
There is no legal basis for the president to order the arrest of someone simply because some journalist has conducted a secret investigation that exposes him.
It seems the president is finding the kettle too hot so he is using Kwesi Nyatakyi as a sacrificial lamb. This man has been giving Akuffo Addo money for his political campaign for donkey years. Where did he (Nana) think the money was coming from? Can Akuffo Addo swear to the country that he has never receive large sums of from from the GFA boss before? It was in the same way that the NPP used Woyome to win election with the promise that if he gave then the damaging info against the then NDC government, they will not touch him when they come to power. Now we don't hear about the WOYOME SAGA any more.
I think nana addo and barwumia are involved in this scandal, and in order to shield himself and his lying son he is trying to use nyantakyi as scape goat.
