The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has summoned Paul Adom-Otchere, former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), for questioning over a corruption investigation tied to a controversial revenue assurance audit contract.

In a letter dated July 25, 2025, the OSP officially identified Mr. Adom-Otchere as a suspect in the investigation into alleged corruption and corruption-related offenses related to the contract between GACL and the private firm.

According to the letter, he has been directed to appear before investigators at the OSP’s South Ridge office on Thursday, July 31, 2025.

Mr. Adom-Otchere, who recently ended his tenure as GACL Board Chairman, confirmed to Myjoyonline.com that he has received the invitation.

He added that his legal team has written to the OSP requesting a rescheduled appearance date of Monday, August 4, due to ongoing court proceedings in Kumasi, the Ashanti Regional capital.

While expressing his willingness to cooperate, Mr. Adom-Otchere voiced surprise at being singled out for questioning. He questioned why, as a former board chair, he is being targeted in a matter that largely stems from decisions made by the company’s management and managing director, who are still available to assist with the investigation.
