The Minority Caucus in Parliament has directed its members not to cooperate with members of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) led by Member of Parliament (MP) for the North Tongu Constituency, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa.
The directive comes amidst concerns that the ORAL team's operations were unconstitutional and aimed at harassing former government officials.
Speaking on behalf of the caucus, the MP for Suame, Mr John Darko, said the ORAL team's activities are not only unconstitutional but also ones that undermine the rule of law.
He expressed concerns that the team's actions were "putting the police, Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), and Special Prosecutor out of business." Mr Darko also said the justification of ORAL's operations by the Attorney General and Minister of Justice designate, Dr Dominic Ayine, who is also a law professor, was alrming. "Boycott any invitations from the ORAL team, emphasising that they will not be part of any unconstitutional activities.
