The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has named Dr Gabriel Tanko Kwamigah-Atokple, owner of Sesi-Edem Company Limited, as a person of interest in an ongoing investigation into an alleged multi-million cedi gold fraud and money laundering scheme.
In a statement issued on March 30, 2026, EOCO said the case originated from a petition filed in November 2025 by J.G. Resources Ltd in collaboration with Unigold Trading LLC. The petition alleges that Sesi-Edem Company Limited fraudulently acquired gold valued at GH¢57,759,594.68 under false pretences.
EOCO indicated that the investigation is being conducted under the Economic and Organised Crime Act, 2010 (Act 804), the Criminal Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29), and the Anti-Money Laundering Act, 2020 (Act 1044).
According to the Office, Dr. Kwamigah-Atokple was invited in November 2025 to assist with investigations but failed to honour the invitation. He is therefore being sought to support ongoing inquiries.
