The maverick politician alleged that the former COCOBOD boss had caused financial loss to the state, therefore “it is time we make him pay for his bad deeds”.
The outspoken New Patriotic Party Member of Parliament for Assin Central Kennedy Agyapong has stated that the docket for the prosecution of five former appointees under the John Mahama-led government is ready.
According to him, he is sure that the former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD), Dr. Stephen Kwabena Opuni made the list.
He, however, refused to mention the identities of the four.
“I can state categorically that some documents for the prosecution of some corrupt NDC officials are ready. I know of Opuni’s own and some four others.

"I know all these documents are ready and are in the custody of the CID and I can assure you that they will not go scot-free,” he said on Accra-based Net 2 TV.
“Opuni will go to jail and I will make sure he pays dearly for his crime. If we refuse to jail him, Ghanaians will vote against us in the [elections] next four years and so we need to get corrupt officials like him away from the country,” Mr Agyapong added.
