The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has shared details of assets it has seized or frozen in the case involving former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), Dr Mustapha Abdul-Hamid, and nine others.

This comes after lawyers for Dr Abdul-Hamid refuted the OSP’s earlier claim that it had confiscated assets of the suspects in the case worth over GH¢100 million and US$100,000.

In a post shared on X on Thursday, November 6, 2025, the office shared a list of the assets it had seized or frozen in the case, including real estate holdings, fuel stations, and logistics vehicles.

“The OSP confirms the seizure and freezing of assets exceeding GH¢100 million and US$100,000, including real estate holdings, fuel stations, and logistics vehicles, in connection with the ongoing prosecution of former NPA CEO Dr Mustapha Abdul-Hamid and others.

“Additional assets remain under active tracing as part of continuing investigations into the alleged extortion and money laundering scheme,” the OSP stated.
