OSP should not be solely blamed for Ofori-Atta situation – Prof Atua
He explained that the immigration proceedings were primarily concerned with Mr Ofori-Atta’s continued stay in the United States on humanitarian grounds, rather than determining the merits of Ghana’s criminal case against him.
According to Prof Atua, the medical circumstances provided a reason for Mr Ofori-Atta’s extended stay in the United States, although he acknowledged that questions remain over what is currently preventing his return to Ghana.
Prof Atua also challenged the characterisation of Mr Ofori-Atta’s departure from Ghana, arguing that he did not leave the country unlawfully because he had received permission to travel for medical reasons.
