The Minority in Parliament has levelled serious accusations against the Attorney General, alleging that he is abusing his office to target former government appointees for personal and political reasons.
Instead of focusing on his legal advisory role, the Attorney General is allegedly authorising raids, arrests, and investigations that unfairly single out individuals linked to the previous administration.
According to Jerry Ahmed Shaib, the Second Deputy Minority Whip, these actions undermine the constitutional mandate of the Attorney General’s office. T
he Minority is calling for an immediate halt to what they describe as politically motivated attacks, warning that such actions set a dangerous precedent and constitute a clear abuse of power.
The Minority’s concerns escalated following a controversial raid on the residence of former Bank of Ghana Governor, Dr Ernest Addison. Images circulating on social media show signs of destruction and ransacking, raising serious questions about the legality and conduct of the operation.
In response, the Minority is demanding a formal apology to Dr Addison and an immediate cessation of such politically charged raids.
The Attorney General’s alleged actions have ignited broader concerns about the potential misuse of power and the erosion of public trust in the country’s legal institutions.
The Minority’s accusations underscore the need for transparency and accountability in all legal and investigative proceedings to prevent political interference in the justice system.
