Power abuse is one of the charges leveled against, Attorney General, Godfred Dame.
The third accused in the ongoing ambulance case, Richard Jakpa, has hinted that he has solid proof linking Gofred Dame to a number of illegal activities.
According to him, Godfred Dame must feel comfortable going to court to clear his name if he has nothing to conceal.
It is believed that Jakpa's position is a brave attempt to guarantee government transparency and hold public servants responsible.
For Godfred Dame, appearing in court to deny these allegations could either exonerate him or expose him to further scrutiny, he added.
Allegedly, the AG pleaded with Jakpa to give a specific kind of testimony in court.
Concerning the authenticity of the leaked tape, Jakpa has issued a challenge to anyone who questions it, asking them to provide a tape of their own as proof.
Jakpa expressed his confidence in obtaining justice in an interview with JoyNews prior to the hearing on Tuesday, June 4, 2024.
He made it clear that the accusations he had made were grave and ought to be handled by the legal system.
Jakpa said “He [Dame]] should come to court and come and refute the allegations and set the records according to his opinion straight and the way it is supposed to be. I have done mine in court, and I am expecting him to come and do his part. The case is in court and not in public opinion.”
The tape's release has sparked a great deal of controversy and cast doubt on the fairness of the legal proceedings against Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, the Minority Leader in Parliament, who is accused of causing financial loss to the state in connection with the purchase of ambulances.
Reactions to Jakpa's audacious challenge have been all over the Ghanaian public and media landscape.
For justice and accountability in the nation, many believe that this is a crucial time.
