An Accra High Court, Financial & Economic Crime Division 2, has ordered the immediate past Managing Director (MD) of the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST) Company Limited, Kingsley Kwame Awuah-Darko, to disclose his bank accounts details to the Police.
The order follows a request brought before the court by D/Sgt. Charles Quayson of the Financial and Forensic Unit of the Criminal Investigative Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, Accra, in July, 2017.
The ‘Order for Disclosure of Bank Account Details’ was to assist the Police with its investigations.
Mr. Awuah-Darko has been on the radar of the security agencies as a wanted man ever since the National Democratic Congress (NDC) lost the 2016 general elections.
Apart from the investigations being conducted by the Police, the former BOST MD is also being investigated by the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) and would not be spared any breathing space when he enters into the country from his base in the United States of America.
Awuah-Darko, according to our sources, is being investigated for at least 12 major transactions he supervised whilst in office.
One of such major transactions is the alleged payments and withdrawals from the government’s account.
The account in question is the Chief of Staff’s ‘Sundry Account’ which the former BOST boss allegedly lodged money into on regular basis and which was reportedly cashed by the Office of the Chief of Staff under President John Dramani Mahama.

NDC, this is the time to stand by your own, who has looted the coffers and run away... Pls show your loyalty to the nation and come account for your stewardship. #BringBackOurMonies...
Ghana is now working, thank God.
Why should we permit officials from the previous government to travel while we might need them to answer important questions relating their services while in office. What is the need of INTERPOL and what is their job. President Trump will be pleased to bring him and all his family. Please the government should take the necessary process to bring him back home for questioning.
Ebobo ba When it is coming it is doing.
