Julius Kotey meets OSP over GHS4m bribery allegation

The Chief Executive Officer of the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA), Julius Neequaye Kotey, has concluded a meeting with the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) after being questioned over an alleged GH¢4 million bribe attempt.

Mr. Kotey appeared before the OSP earlier today following his recent revelation that he was offered a GH¢4 million bribe by influential individuals seeking to halt the rollout of the new Digitalised Vehicle Registration Plate (DP) policy.

The DVLA boss, who was seen leaving the OSP’s premises after the session, declined to speak to the media, saying he would address journalists at a later time.

The OSP had earlier confirmed that it invited Mr. Kotey to assist in verifying his claim and help identify those allegedly involved in the bribery attempt aimed at influencing the DVLA’s digital registration project.
