Executive Director of anti-graft agency, the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), ACP K.K Amoah, will retire from his post, sources have confirmed to Myjoyonline.
His last day will be Thursday, 28th February.
ACP Amoah had been on a two-year contract at the anti-corruption agency that ends this month, sources disclose.
”Mr. K.K. Amoah was appointed by His Excellency the President as Executive Director to serve a two-year contract at the Economic and Organised Crime office. The contract ends on 28th February 2019,” an EOCO statement reads.
Controversy
In November last year, ACP Amoah came under public criticism for suspending the Eastern Region Director of EOCO, Fred Dzeny.
ACP Amoah suspended Mr Dzeny for making utterances he [ACP Amoah] described as unethical.
Mr Dzeny had called on President Add Dankwa Akufo-Addo to prosecute his appointees found culpable of corrupt practices in order to cement his commitment towards fighting corruption in the country.
Mr Dzeny made the call while addressing patrons at a forum held under the theme “Youth in the fight against corruption.”
