Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A-Plus, has refuted claims that he received money to interfere in investigations surrounding the National Service Secretariat (NSS) scandal.
In a statement issued on Friday, the outspoken legislator distanced himself from the allegations, attributing them to a fake social media account impersonating him.
The statement follows comments made by Attorney General Dr. Dominic Ayine at a press conference, in which he cited claims from the account and called on A-Plus to respond.
“I have never received any money from the National Service Secretariat, nor do I have any dealings—direct or indirect—with the institution,” A-Plus said. “At no point have I tried to influence or suppress the investigation.”
Clarifying his involvement, the MP noted that the only time he came into contact with the issue was in November 2024, when a man approached him claiming he had been wrongly implicated in the scandal.
According to A-Plus, the individual sought assistance to clear his name, and he agreed to help the man secure a media platform to share his side of the story.
“As someone with a media background and a declared majority stake in a media company, I simply offered him the opportunity to explain his case publicly,” he explained. “If that support is being interpreted as interference, I respectfully disagree.”
He concluded by stating, “I believe strongly in the right of every accused person to be heard.”
