The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has clarified that it has not filed any criminal charges against Nana Yaw Duodu, also known as Dr Sledge of Godridge Ghana Limited, contrary to media reports suggesting he has been cleared of corruption.
In a press release dated February 25, 2026, the OSP stated that no court has pronounced on Dr Sledge’s guilt or innocence, as investigations are still ongoing.
The investigation relates to the operations of the Minerals Income Investment Fund (MIIF) between 2020 and 2024, including activities involving Dr Sledge. According to the OSP, the aspects of the investigation concerning him involve approximately $94 million.
In 2025, the OSP froze assets belonging to Dr Sledge, including vehicles valued at GHC18 million. Although the High Court in January 2025 declined to confirm the asset freezing order, the OSP said it has taken legal steps to nullify that refusal and has moved to re-secure the assets.
The OSP emphasised that the assets remain frozen and under its authority, protection, and preservation in the public interest. It added that asset tracing efforts are continuing to identify and freeze additional properties suspected to be tainted.
