The investigation followed an expose in a documentary by Tiger Eye PI, an investigative organization, in which the former GFA President, sought to implicate President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in the alleged scandal.
The documentary exposed corruption in football administration in Ghana and other African countries.

According to the House’s Business Statement, the Attorney-General, would be appearing before it to answer a question on that.
