Director of Legal Affairs of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Godwin Edudzi Tameklo has told President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo that the Exvceiuive arm of government cannot be taken out of the discussion on the arrest and the prosecution of the Democracy Hub protesters.
He says that the Attorney-General who is an appointee and Chief legal advisor to the president and government is the one in court prosecuting the protesters.
Edudzi accused President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo of dishonesty in his comments on the arrest of the Democracy Hub protesters.
He described the level of the president's dishonesty in this matter as 'terrible'. "The level of dishonesty is terrible, he ignores local media and grants interviews to international, the reason he does this is that there is no benefit of fact-checking him. "The person who is in court prosecuting these protesters is an appointee of Akufo-Addo, the person who arrested these protesters is the IGP appointed by Akufo-Addo," Edudzi said on the Nig Ossue on TV3 Monday, October 7.
