The residence of the former Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Ernest Addison, has been raided by a group of armed men suspected to be National Security operatives.
Reports indicate some armed security operatives numbering about 20 invaded Dr. Addison’s Roman Ridge residence on Wednesday, March 19 at dawn.
Dr Addison was at home when the heavily armed men, some in balaclavas, wielding AK-47 semi-automatic rifles, showed up to conduct a search.
The team from National Security immediately disabled the CCTV system at the property.
The team demanded that the former Governor leads them to the “vaults” in his house which he denied of having any or a cache of cash at home, according to Accra-based Asaase Radio report.
But the personnel were not convinced by the answers, according to reports, and went ahead to ransack the house according to eyewitnesses.
However, following the non-retrieval of any large sums of money and vaults, they took with them the CCTV monitor and control unit at the house.
