Interior Minister Mubarak Mohammed Muntaka has pledged confidence in Criminal Investigations Department Director-General Lydia Yaako Donkor. He said Donkor will not allow the alleged sexual abuse cases involving the headmaster of Obuasi Senior High Technical School to be buried. Muntaka said he was willing to "vouch with his life" for her integrity. The assurance was offered to counter fears that the investigation could be compromised or swept aside. The cases remain allegations, and investigators had not announced a finding. The report gave no timetable for the probe and did not say when investigators might present their findings.
