Majority to probe COVID-19 funds, PDS scandal and Agyapa - Mahama Ayariga

The Majority Caucus in Parliament has announced plans to initiate a comprehensive investigation into acts of financial mismanagement and recklessness that allegedly occurred under previous administration.

Speaking in Parliament on Tuesday, May 27, 2025, the Majority Leader, Mahama Ayariga, stressed the importance of holding public officials accountable for financial decisions.

“During this caucus, the Majority will spearhead a rigorous pursuit of accountability in Ghana’s public financial management. We will demand a full-scale parliamentary investigation into the handling of COVID-19 expenditure to ensure transparency in how emergency funds were utilised.

“Additionally, this House will revisit the unresolved Agyapa Royalties deal and require a detailed update on the $190 million PDS scandal, a case of alleged fraud in power distribution under the previous administration,” he added.
