'The A-G has joined in the protection of the looters of the state' – Dr. Amoako Baah laments

Reacting to a correspondence between the AG, Godfred Dame, and the CEO of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) concerning the Cecilia Dapaah (a former Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources) case, Dr Amoako Baah could not hide his disappointment that the AG has joined hands with people looting the country.

In the correspondence, which GhanaWeb sighted on Wednesday, May 1, 2024, it stated that there was no evidence of corruption or procurement breaches against Cecilia Dapaah and her husband, Daniel Osei Kufuor.

The details also said that the AG's office's review of the OSP case found no evidence of corruption-related offences or procurement violations on the part of the former minister and her husband.

Richard Amoako Baah stated that those assertions were nonsensical and an attempt to cover-up.

If that is the case, it is illegally acquired wealth, called bribes, kickbacks, side dealing, or other ways they are referred to.

He further questioned the AG's role in all this, accusing him of siding with the 'looters' in such cases.

He also questioned President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo's role in all this, indicating that if this case is left to die, it will question the President's pedigree as a lawyer of good standing.
