Read the OSP's full address below:
Kissi Agyebeng said based on the findings, his office has closed its investigations into the scandal.
Moments after the declaration of no guilt, Sammy Gyamfi who has always proclaimed Mahama's innocence, issued a terse statement saying the smear campaign has failed.
"Lies they say, have a short life span. And vindication they say, is in the womb of time.
"Once again, H.E. John Dramani Mahama has been vindicated, as the Office of Special Prosecutor has exonerated him of any wrongdoing in the Airbus saga.
"The evil smear agenda by the corrupt Akufo-Addo/Bawumia “agyapadie” cabal, who are desperately looking for corruption classmates, has failed.
"Seven and half years after leaving office, John Mahama remains squeaky clean with unblemished integrity. Certainly, John Mahama is the incorruptible leader Ghana needs to win the fight against corruption.
"Airbus saga, “YAAMUTU”.
"Truth stands."
