Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng has indicated that his outfit will be going after Ghanaians driving luxurious cars in the country.
Speaking in an interview on ''Kokrokoo'' on Peace FM, the Special Prosecutor outlined his mandate stating he is not only tasked to prosecute corrupt politicians but also any individual, whether in public or private capacity, who lives a suspicious lifestyle.
He stressed that he has the obligation to interrogate the source of people's wealth and businesses.
"Those of you driving cars that we have no idea where you get them from. What work do you do to be driving a Bugatti? You will explain it to me. It's also part of my job. I can give you a notice for you to report in my office to show me where you acquired the Bugatti from. What work do you do? Come and show me your salary . . . If you don't explain it clearly to me for me to better understand, I will impound the car and proceed to court," he warned.
''The Office of Special Prosecutor is not targeting only politicians but public officials, politically exposed persons, meaning a person who the government has given a position in this country - the person can be a Judge, Police officer and so forth - and the person's spouse, children and anyone closely associated with the person is politically exposed person. Also, political party officials like a party Chairman at a constituency, a party Chairman/executive at the national level; the Special Prosecutor can investigate all them," he said.

Please stop this silliness! Perhaps you should start with your classmates and colleagues who got you the job before you come to those driving luxury cars. You need not go that far to find those milking the system. You sound like an 'it's all talk' kind of guy. Please stop granting interviews and focus on your job. We've heard too much from you already!
This is sad if this statement purpoted to be made by Kissi Agyabeng is true. Martin Amidu talked and talked and did nothing. Yaw Domelovo also became a talkative and Mr. do little. Kissi Agyabeng must stop the interviews and the talk. Ghanaians expect action from him and not talking. He must know that some office are not meant for imterviews and talk. Examples are CJ, ACC. GEN. AUD. GEN. GOV. OF Central Bank, Chief of Staff of Gh. Armed Forces. Special Prosecutor is like one of them. Attorney General and IGP may sometimes have to come out on crucial matters but not expected to be radio commentators. Infact the Police are doing well with their PROs which should keep IGP from public conversations. You dont need to talk before people can see your work. The Secretary and Chief of Staff at the presidency are working so hard but know one hears about them. They would grant interviews when their term of office is over. We must all learn to keep silent when we dont need to speak. Our actions should speak for our words and not the vice versa.
