Manhyia South MP Baffour Awuah appears at EOCO with Samuel Atta Kyea

The Member of Parliament for Manhyia South, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, has reported himself to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) following a High Court warrant issued for his arrest.

The MP arrived at the EOCO office on Thursday, October 1, in the company of his counsel, Samuel Atta Kyea, and other Members of Parliament.

His decision to report himself follows the Court’s order issued on Wednesday, September 30, authorising EOCO to arrest him.

The warrant was issued after EOCO told the High Court that it had exhausted reasonable means of securing the MP’s voluntary attendance for questioning.

The agency subsequently sought the Court’s authority to compel his attendance.

Among the MPs at the EOCO office in support of Baffour Awuah are Kofi Amankwah Manu, Subin MP Obiri Yeboah and former Deputy Attorney-General Joseph Kpemka.

The circumstances surrounding the investigation and the MP’s engagement with EOCO are expected to become clearer following his appearance before the agency.

According to Dr Srem-Sai, the investigation concerns suspected offences including financial loss, dissipation of public funds and money laundering.

He made the disclosure in a Facebook post on Wednesday, September 30, 2026.
