The former Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Godfred Dame, has filed a lawsuit against the government regarding the revocation of appointments and recruitments made by the previous (NPP) administration following the December 7 elections.

The lawsuit, filed at the Accra High Court on behalf of 40 affected public sector workers who were dismissed following the revocation directives by President John Dramani Mahama, targets not only the government, but also six government institutions.

These institutions include the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), the Ghana Shippers Authority, the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA), the National Lottery Authority (NLA), the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA), and the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA).

The plaintiffs are seeking various reliefs from the defendants.
