Dennis Miracles Aboagye, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) communicator and spokesperson for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has said he has been humiliated, defamed, unfairly treated and maligned following his arrest by the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO).
According to Miracles Aboagye, he has been deeply hurt by EOCO’s public statement linking him to the alleged misappropriation of GH¢55 million.
Miracles Aboagye disclosed that following his arrest, rumours claiming he has three wives have brought his marriage to the brink of collapse as his wife has packed out of their home.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen on July 21, 2026, Miracles Aboagye stated, “I have been defamed and maligned. I am saddened by all this… David Tamakloe wrote on Facebook that I have three wives. My wife has even packed her bags and left home. It is all emanating from the impact of some of these things. They have done me a lot of disservice”.
My house on the mountains that has gone viral, I built it in 2019; I was not even an MCE yet, I built it gradually. If we decide to do the same for this government by taking videos of appointees’ homes, will they have a place to stay?”.
Miracles Aboagye further alleged that his arrest was orchestrated by the current Executive Director of IMCCoD, Gameli Hoedoafia, who has a personal vendetta against him.
He further disclosed that he has fully cooperated with EOCO throughout its investigations and was surprised when he was arrested at Kotoka International Airport.
Miracles Aboagye insisted that he had made himself available to investigators whenever required and believed the allegations had unfairly tarnished his image.
The NPP man further challenged reports linking his recent arrest by EOCO to an alleged GH¢55 million financial irregularity.
He insisted that investigators are questioning him over transactions amounting to about GH¢9 million and another GH¢5000, with a procurement issue involving GH¢5.2 million.
In that same interview, Miracles Aboagye stated, “I am being questioned over about GH¢9 million, not the GH¢55 million amount circulating in the public domain. The story of my arrest and, subsequently, my house in the public was put out by EOCO for reasons best known to them”.
“It was GH¢9 million and GH¢5,000”.
“Yet, miraculously, under some strange circumstances, EOCO, even writing on the back of the petition from the IMCC, still inflated this GH¢9 million to GH¢20 million.”
“For an organisation like EOCO, you don’t do that to your citizens with such figures.”
According to Mircales Aboagye he questioned the origin of the widely reported GH¢55 million figure, saying he sought clarification from EOCO officials.
“I asked about the origin of the GH¢55 million that was put out by EOCO officials, and they told me they didn’t put out that figure in the public domain”.
He argued that IMCCoD never controlled such an amount. Mr Aboagye rejected suggestions that the alleged irregularities involved GH¢55 million.
“In fact, there cannot be any GH¢55 million because the organisation had no GH¢55 million”.
“GH¢5.2 million is the figure over which EOCO has an issue with me.”
He added, “GH¢5.2 million in terms of procurement — all of that are processes. But the organisation didn’t even have such an amount”.
In related news, Miracles Aboagye, following his release from the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) detention, disclosed that he remains unshaken by his recent arrest.
According to Miracles Aboagye, his experience at EOCO had only strengthened his resolve and increased his capacity to serve.
In a X post on July 15, 2026, following his release from detention, Miracles Aboagye wrote, I AM OUT. I AM UNBROKEN. AND I AM MORE READY THAN EVER. THANK YOU, PATRIOTS!
Four days ago, just one day after I declared my intention to serve our great party as National Communications Director, I was picked up and detained by EOCO. A false narrative was put out about my arrest, but Ghanaians are not fools, and neither are the good people of the New Patriotic Party. The facts and the truth will prevail!!
FOR THE RECORDS: THERE WAS NO Discussion OF ANY GHc55million cedis with me by EOCO. None!!!
To every party faithful who hit the streets, who raised their voices, who refused to be silent, I saw you. I heard you. From my detention, word of your protests reached me, and it kept my spirit standing tall. You did not just defend Dennis Miracles Aboagye; you defended the principle that no voice can be intimidated into silence.
Let me be clear: if the intention was to break me, it has failed. If the intention was to scare me, it has failed spectacularly. I will lead New Patriotic Party’s communications Directorate to command the narrative, and no cell, no false story, no intimidation will change that.
Fuel, has only been added to the fire 🔥
To my legal team, party leadership, and every single supporter who stood with me, thank you.
This journey is no longer mine alone. It is ours.
We move. Stronger. Louder. Together.
Built to Lead. Ready to Win”.
