Africa-Press – Ghana. Private legal practitioner and a member of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Kwame Jantuah, has observed that the judge sitting on the ongoing ambulance purchase trial, Justice Afia Serwah Asare-Botwe, should have requested further evidence from the third accused person, Richard Jakpa, to substantiate his allegations against the Attorney-General, Godfred Dame Yeboah.
Mr Jakpa said in open court that the Attorney-General had severally engaged him at odd hours to incriminate the first accused and Minority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson.
During court proceedings on Thursday, May 23, 2024, Mr Jakpa fumed at the Attorney-General for accusing him of defending the Minority Leader in his testimony.
“The A-G has on several occasions engaged me at odd hours to help him make a case against A1 [Ato Forson] and I have evidence for that.. If he pushes me, I will open the Pandora’s box. I don’t understand why the A-G will accuse me of defending A1 [Ato Forson] when I’m here to defend myself,” Jakpa fumed.
