Ghanaian YouTuber and law graduate, Ama Governor, has taken to Twitter to express her frustration and anger over the delay in her call to the bar, which was suspended due to a petition filed by an anonymous person who claimed she was unfit to be a lawyer.
In a series of tweets, Ama Governor revealed that she had successfully defended herself against the petition, which was based on false and malicious allegations about her conduct and sexuality.
She said the petition was thrown out in the first hearing, and that the subsequent hearings were only about two questions the committee had to ask her.
"Respectfully, I am still waiting to be told what my improper conduct was from 6th Nov, 2022 till date. I cannot handle this tarnishing of image and spread of false information about the true facts of the events that took place for much longer. This is cruel.
I won the ‘case’, if you will, against the till date unidentified petitioner. After my lawyer and I submitted our written legal response to the frivolous petition, it was thrown out in the very first hearing. The next three hearings till the decision was delivered was about 2 questions the committee had to ask me and us coming to a consensus, " she wrote.
She also challenged the basis and legality of the petition, which was filed on 3rd November 2022, just six days before her scheduled call to the bar on 11th November 2022. She said she had passed all the requirements necessary to be called to the bar, and that she had not committed any crime or misconduct while studying law.

Ama accused the petitioner of violating her constitutional rights and tarnishing her image with lies and fabrications. She also lamented the unfair treatment and discrimination she faced from some members of the legal profession, who used her as a bad example and questioned her moral compass.

She demanded to know what her actual crime was, and why she was singled out among her peers. She said she was proud of her content creation and advocacy on various social media platforms, where she shared her views on feminism, body positivity, queerness, women's sexual liberation, and other topics.
She ended her rant by calling for justice and respect for her dignity and career. She said she was still waiting to be told what her improper conduct was from 6th November 2022 till date. She said she could not handle the spread of false information and the denial of her call to the bar any longer.
Her tweets have sparked mixed reactions from netizens, some of whom supported her and praised her courage and resilience, while others criticized her and questioned her suitability for the legal profession. Some also called for an investigation into the petition and the role of the General Legal Council in handling the matter.
