President Akufo-Addo said he had taken the action following allegations levelled against Adu Boahen in an expose about small-scale gold mining, and that he had also referred the matter to the Special Prosecutor for further investigations.
Ghana’s Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta is also facing calls for sack from members of parliament who accuse him of corruption and economic sabotage as the country grapples with its worst economic crisis in decades.
