Ghana’s Finance Minister from 2017 to 2024, Ofori-Atta, was declared wanted by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) on June 2, 2025, and a Red Notice was issued for his arrest.
The politician is wanted in relation to five cases, including contractual arrangements between Strategic Mobilisation Ghana Limited (SML) and the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), as well as procurement processes and financial transactions linked to the National Cathedral Project.
Ken Ofori-Atta, who is currently residing in the United States, has challenged the arrest warrant issued against him.
Below is a Facebook post with details of Ofori-Atta's legal battle against the OSP.
Kevin Taylor blasts OSP and Mahama
In a video seen by YEN.com.gh on TikTok, Kevin Taylor shared a photo of Ken Ofori-Atta freely walking in the streets of the United States.
The controversial political commentator fumed that the former Databank co-founder remained free and laid the blame at the feet of President John Dramani Mahama.
“I blame the president, I blame this government, the OSP needs to be sacked. Mr President, I blame you for this. Because if Ken Ofori-Atta is still in America and you have somebody you have assigned to make sure Ken is brought back home to face the law, and it's not happening, then you're the one to be blamed,” he said.
Kevin Taylor added that the failure to apprehend Ofori-Atta should lead to the dismissal of the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyabeng.
He further stated that failure to do so meant the president had failed in the fight against corruption, which was dubbed Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) during his successful 2024 campaign.
"The OSP needs to be sacked. If the OSP stays in that office, then it means Mr President, you are not ready to help us fight corruption as you promised. It's quite interesting that the OSP knows where Ken is [but has done nothing]. I don't trust the OSP that much. I see him as someone using his office to protect criminals." Taylor added.

Journalist reacts to Kevin Taylor's OSP rant
In an interview with YEN.com.gh, Ghanaian journalist Stella Annan called on Kevin Taylor to hold back and give the OSP time to go through the justice process.
"Kevin Taylor should calm down and give the Special Prosecutor the benefit of the doubt and watch the office do its work regarding the case. Lest we forget, the former finance minister just recovered from a health issue, and I believe, as he is recuperating and can now move around, the OSP is monitoring when to finally bring him home to answer pertinent questions regarding his stewardship as finance minister," she said.
Annan continued: "Believe you me, all Ghanaians are waiting for those questions to be answered to bring this issue to rest. The wheels of justice grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine."
