Ofori-Atta US residency amid corruption probe

Former Ghanaian Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta has reportedly obtained approval to pursue lawful permanent residency in the United States, according to his legal team. The development comes as Ghanaian authorities investigate corruption allegations during his tenure. Ofori-Atta served as finance minister under former President Nana Akufo-Addo and has faced scrutiny over economic management and procurement deals. The US residency move could complicate ongoing investigations and extradition efforts.
