After emerging victorious from a 3-year legal battle, Member of Parliament for Assin North, James Gyakye Quayson, says his acquittal is not just a personal victory but a win for his constituents and the nation as a whole.
Reacting to the court's decision in an interview with JoyNews, the Assin North MP expressed gratitude and reaffirmed his belief in the legal system. "It is almost expected because you see, when a man is innocent, no matter what you do, it will be pronounced at some point," he said.
Mr Quayson praised the judge's integrity, saying he wished he could have thanked her in the courtroom. "They were trying to prosecute me but this is a court of law.There is a difference between prosecution and persecution.
I am very proud of our lady Justice Mary Ekue Yanzuh.
