Corruption : Jinapor, Asenso-Boakye Cleared By CHRAJ

The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), has cleared the two Deputy Chiefs of Staff, Francis Asenso-Boakye and Samuel Abu Jinapor, of any corruption charges.

A report by the commission confirmed the innocence of the two after it conducted allegations of corruption levelled by musician and staunch New Patriotic Party (NPP) member, Kwame A-Plus.

The basis of his allegation was that Asenso-Boakye and Jinapor had interfered in the management of Korle Bu Teaching Hospital and in the opinion of A Plus, that amounted to corruption.

The musician held the view that the two forced the Korle-Bu CEO to give a revenue-collection contract to uniBank after the same contract had been given to a wholly-foreign-owned bank.

The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service had earlier described as “baseless”, the accusations made by the musician.

However a group petitioned CHRAJ to conduct further investigations and the report has exonerated the accused persons.
