The Office of the former Health Minister, Dr. Bernard Okoe Boye, has dismissed a theft allegation against the former Minister.

Reacting to a viral TikTok video falsely accusing Dr. Okoe Boye of theft, the office noted that the allegations were “false, baseless and aimed at misleading the public.”

According to a statement signed by the Special Aide to the former Minister, Samuel Kofi Yeboah, two NDC-affiliated Assemblymen from Ledzokuku, in the guise of having authorization from ORAL (Operation Recover All Loot), invaded the premise of the former Minister, and vandalized his properties.

They were however stopped by some policemen before causing further damage.

“On Saturday, 18th January 2025, a group led by Kabu Saint Emmanuel and Joseph Tetteh, both NDC-affiliated Assemblymen from Ledzokuku, unlawfully invaded Dr Okoe Boye’s storage facility at an address in Ajiringano under the false pretense of having ORAL authorization,” the statement read.

“They forcefully gained entry, vandalized the premises, and unlawfully removed various items including Dr Okoe Boye’s personal clothes, furniture, Oil, boxes of books written by Dr Okoe Boye, motorbikes etc,” it added.

The statement noted that “Although the police responded and were present to stop the raid, the perpetrators, including two police officers in civilian clothing from the Teshie police command, resisted efforts to halt their actions.”

Having informed the public of active investigation into the matter, the Office of Dr. Okoe Boye pledged commitment to “serving the community and Ghana with integrity, transparency, and an unwavering.”
