The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has initiated an investigation into Dr. Mustapha Abdul-Hamid, the former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA). The probe aims to examine allegations of misconduct during his tenure at the regulatory body overseeing Ghana’s downstream petroleum industry.
The OSP’s investigation seeks to address concerns regarding potential irregularities during his administration. Specific details of the allegations remain undisclosed as the investigation is ongoing.
In January 2025, Dr. Abdul-Hamid was succeeded by Godwin Edudzi Tameklo as the Acting CEO of the NPA, following a series of appointments by President John Dramani Mahama.
The OSP has assured the public of a thorough and impartial investigation, emphasizing its commitment to upholding accountability and integrity within public institutions. Dr. Abdul-Hamid has yet to issue a public statement regarding the investigation.
