Former Health Minister, Dr. Bernard Okoe Boye, has publicly denied allegations of theft following a TikTok video that has gone viral, accusing him of unlawful activities.
In a statement issued on January 22, 2025, Dr. Okoe Boye described the claims as “entirely false, baseless, and aimed at misleading the public.”
According to the statement signed by Samuel Kofi Yeboah, Special Aide to Dr. Okoe Boye, the incident in question occurred on Saturday, January 18, 2025. The statement alleges that a group, led by Kabu Saint Emmanuel and Joseph Tetteh, both affiliated with the NDC and serving as assemblymen in Ledzokuku, unlawfully invaded Dr. Okoe Boye’s storage facility in Adjiringanor. The group reportedly gained access under the false pretense of having oral authorization.
Once inside, the intruders are said to have vandalized the premises and unlawfully removed several items, including Dr. Okoe Boye’s personal belongings, furniture, oil, motorbikes, and boxes of books authored by him. The statement also claims that two police officers from the Teshie police command, dressed in civilian clothing, resisted attempts by responding officers to halt the raid.
Despite the accusations being widely shared on social media, Dr. Okoe Boye has called on the public to disregard the “unfounded allegations.” He assured Ghanaians that the Ghana Police Service is actively investigating the matter to ensure that justice is served.
“Dr. Okoe Boye remains dedicated to serving the community and Ghana with integrity, transparency, and an unwavering commitment to public service,” the statement concluded.
