The Chief Executive Officer of the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA), Julius Neequaye Kotey, has completed his meeting with the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) after being questioned over an alleged GH¢4 million bribe attempt.
Mr. Kotey appeared before the OSP earlier today following his recent claim that some powerful individuals offered him a GH¢4 million bribe to stop the rollout of the new Digitalised Vehicle Registration Plate (DP) policy.
The DVLA boss, who was seen leaving the OSP premises after the engagement, declined to comment when approached by journalists. He said he would address the media at a later date.
The OSP had earlier confirmed that it invited Mr. Kotey to assist in investigations aimed at verifying the alleged bribe and identifying those involved in the attempt to influence the DVLA’s digital registration project.
In a related development, the OSP has also begun investigating a member of the Council of State over suspected corruption involving gold trading and the alleged misuse of his position to influence the granting of a gold licence.
