Sedina Tamakloe-Attionu acquittal raises corruption fight concerns – John Darko

Legal Counsel for the Minority Caucus, John Darko, has questioned the circumstances surrounding the Court of Appeal’s decision to acquit and discharge former Chief Executive Officer of the Microfinance and Small Loans Centre (MASLOC), Sedina Tamakloe-Attionu, arguing that the ruling could undermine Ghana’s fight against corruption.

Mr Darko also criticised what he described as selective prosecution by the government, alleging that some corruption cases involving political allies are treated differently from those involving opponents.” He warned that if public officials believe corruption-related cases could be reversed based on changes in government, it could weaken the fight against graft.
