Former British High Commissioner to Ghana, Jon Benjamin, has noted that only persons engaged in corrupt practices fear investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas.

According to him, people who are not corrupt and have done nothing wrong have nothing to fear as far as Anas is concerned.

Anas has, over the years, unearthed corrupt practices among top-notch officials in the country and beyond.

His latest work is a documentary dubbed ‘Number 12’ which uncovered corruption within the Ghana Football Association (GFA).

However, Anas’ modus operandi has been questioned by Member of Parliament for Assin Central Kennedy Agyapong.

In the view of the lawmaker, Anas entraps persons caught in his documentaries, a situation he believes should not be countenanced.

Responding to a tweet by one of his followers that Anas should probe him, too, Mr Benjamin, said: “My friend @anasglobal is welcome to come and investigate me. There is nothing to investigate. People who aren't corrupt and have done nothing wrong have nothing to fear.”
