Upon arrival at Kotoka International Airport, she was not arrested as anticipated by the National Investigations Bureau (NIB). According to Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin, Oware-Mensah plans to report to the NIB with her legal counsel to address the allegations.
The investigation centers on discrepancies in the NSS payroll, with the government uncovering 81,885 suspected ghost names. This discrepancy suggests a potential misappropriation of approximately GH₵50 million monthly. As the former Deputy Executive Director overseeing administration and finance, Oware-Mensah is considered a key figure in the investigation.
Previously, the NIB detained and questioned Kwaku Ohene Djan, another former Deputy Executive Director of the NSS, in connection with the same allegations
