A team of heavily armed men, allegedly led by Richard Jakpa, Director of Special Operations at the National Security Secretariat, raided the private residence of former Bank of Ghana Governor, Dr. Ernest Addison, at Roman Ridge in Accra.
The incident, which took place on the morning of Wednesday, March 19, 2025, saw about twenty armed men storm the property, some wearing balaclavas and wielding AK-47 rifles.

Dr. Ernest Addison was at home when the operatives arrived and immediately disabled the property’s CCTV system before demanding access to “vaults” within the house.
According to sources, the former Governor, visibly shocked, denied having any vaults or cash reserves at home. The reason behind the raid remains unclear, and authorities have yet to provide an official statement on the operation.
