Former Buffer Stock CEO Rejects Corruption Allegations

The former Chief Executive Officer of the National Food and Buffer Stock Company, Abdul-Wahab Hanan Aludiba, has refuted claims linking him to an alleged corruption scandal at the company, following disclosures made by the Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr. Dominic Ayine.

During the Government Accountability Series in Accra, Dr. Ayine revealed that more than GH¢40 million was purportedly funneled through Sawtina Enterprise to various individuals and organizations — including Hanan — in what investigators suspect to be a money laundering operation tied to his time in office.

In a statement released on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, Hanan rejected the Attorney General’s assertions, describing them as baseless and harmful to his reputation. He firmly denied any role in the alleged misconduct.

“My attention has been drawn to recent statements made by the Honourable Attorney General during a press engagement, in which my name was mentioned in connection with allegations of corruption,” Hanan said.

“I wish to state, respectfully, that these claims are untrue and do not reflect the facts of the matter.”

He went on to label the accusations as “deeply unfortunate,” emphasizing that he has no association with the issues currently under investigation.

Hanan further noted that he has sought legal representation to examine the matter and advise on the appropriate steps to safeguard his integrity.

“I look forward to the opportunity to present my side and to have my day in court, where I am confident that the truth will be made clear,” he affirmed.
