Abdul-Wahab Hanan Aludiba, the former Chief Executive Officer of the National Food and Buffer Stock Company, has refuted any participation in the purported corruption scandal associated with the company, following disclosures made by the Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Dr. Dominic Ayine.
During the Government Accountability Series held in Accra, Dr. Ayine revealed that more than GH¢40 million was allegedly funneled through Sawtina Enterprise to various individuals and entities — including Hanan — as part of what investigators believe to be a money laundering operation linked to the former CEO’s administration.
In a statement released on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, Hanan rejected the Attorney General’s assertions as false and detrimental to his reputation, maintaining that he has no involvement in any illicit activities.
“My attention has been drawn to recent statements made by the Honourable Attorney General during a press engagement, in which my name was mentioned in connection with allegations of corruption,” Hanan stated.
“I wish to state, respectfully, that these claims are untrue and do not reflect the facts of the matter.”
He further characterized the allegations as “deeply unfortunate,” emphasizing that he has no ties to the issues currently under investigation.
Hanan also mentioned that he has sought legal counsel to examine the situation and provide guidance on the subsequent steps to safeguard his integrity.
“I look forward to the opportunity to present my side and to have my day in court, where I am confident that the truth will be made clear,” he affirmed.
