The legal battle surrounding former Sanitation Minister Cecilia Dapaah has taken a new twist as her driver, Raymond Nii Amon Ashie, provided startling revelations in court.
His testimony has shed fresh light on how Patience Botwe, an 18-year-old housemaid, was allegedly caught stealing large sums of money from the minister’s residence.
Ghanaians were initially stunned when reports emerged that huge amounts of cash in different currencies—including dollars, pounds, and cedis—were discovered hidden in Cecilia Dapaah’s home.
The controversy intensified when Patience Botwe was accused of stealing a portion of the money. Many citizens questioned how such enormous sums ended up in the private home of a public official, fueling concerns about corruption and unexplained wealth.
In court, Ashie recounted how suspicion grew after Botwe was seen in a restricted area of the house. When confronted, she mysteriously disappeared, prompting a frantic search. She was eventually found hiding in a toilet in the boys’ quarters. This strange behavior led Cecilia Dapaah and her husband to alert the authorities immediately.
While the theft itself is a major issue, the bigger question on the minds of Ghanaians remains: Why was such a huge amount of money stored in the home of a government official?
As the trial continues, many believe that more shocking revelations could emerge, possibly uncovering deeper secrets about hidden wealth and corruption.
The case is far from over, and the nation waits anxiously. Will the truth be fully exposed? Will justice be served? All eyes remain on the courtroom as the drama unfolds.
