Former Chief Executive Officer of the National Food and Buffer Stock Company (NAFCO), Abdul-Wahab Hanan Aludiba, has rejected claims linking him to an alleged corruption and money laundering scandal at the company.
His response follows revelations by the Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr. Dominic Ayine, during the Government Accountability Series in Accra, on Wednesday, October 22, where Dr. Ayine alleged that more than GHS 40 million had been channelled through Sawtina Enterprise to various individuals and entities — including Hanan — in what investigators suspect to be a money laundering scheme tied to his tenure.
In a statement released on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, Mr. Hanan dismissed the Attorney General’s assertions as false, misleading, and injurious to his reputation, maintaining that he had no role in any alleged misconduct.
“My attention has been drawn to recent statements made by the Honourable Attorney General during a press engagement, in which my name was mentioned in connectin with allegations of corruption,” the statement read.
“I wish to state, respectfully, that these claims are untrue, and do not relect the facts of the matter. I have no involvement in the issues being referred to…”
Describing the allegations as “deeply unfortunate,” Mr. Hanan insisted that he has no link to any transactions under probe and has instructed his lawyers to study the matter and advise accordingly.
“I have asked my legal representatives tyo review the situation and to advise on the appropriate steps to protect my reputation. to address these claims and to take the necessary steps to safeguard my integrity. I look forward to the opportunity to present my side and to have my day in court, where I am confident that the truth will be made clear,” he added.
