The third accused in the ambulance case, Richard Jakpa, has testified in court that he had two meetings with Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Godfred Yeboah Dame, in 2022, both occurring at approximately 10:30 PM.

Jakpa disclosed this during his cross-examination on Thursday, June 13, by Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson's legal team, the first accused in the case.

He emphasized that these late-night meetings suggested a sense of secrecy and urgency in their discussions, shaping his understanding of his role and the case's direction.

During these encounters, Jakpa claimed that Godfred Dame assured him he was not the primary target of the prosecution, with the main focus being Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson.

Jakpa stated that this assurance influenced his decision to fully cooperate with the Attorney General's office, including sharing crucial documents and information.

He asserted that he was led to believe he would be acquitted through a submission of no case, bolstering his cooperation.

Jakpa further testified that based on these assurances, he received the addendum to the main contract between the Ghanaian government and Big Sea even before the prosecution closed its case, a document pivotal to the trial proceedings.

His revelations during cross-examination have introduced a new perspective to the ongoing trial, shedding light on interactions between the accused and Attorney General Godfred Dame.
