Constitutional review is very important ,and this is the reason why i use to say that Nana Susubiribri Asante Krobea should stop accepting and defending and "preserving"the national constitution as "holistic". But how do you preserve it in the mist of "incomplete" constitution, unless the president stops preserving it in order to make way for alteration. With greater respect.

Asiedu Nketia should understand that Special Prosecutor is not a law on its own and cannot go after people without due process. Why? Because the SP prosecutes and nothing else and after that the courts are the final decision making after the prosecution.

If we are really a nation "trying" to wade through this world, we must use our brains correctly than trying to use some tactics to bulldoze through thick iron walls.

Asiedu Nketia, try to understand that the best the SP can do is to prosecute and nothing else. Also, any news, information or whatever coming from the SP, should be credible rather than distortions.

The SP prosecutor cannot arrest anybody without a court warrant and that is how it is done anywhere in the world but in Ghana, a creature like Asiedu Nketia and NDC goons think that the SP has the powers to even remove the president from office. Mmoa.

And where did the Southwark Crown Court adjudicate that govt official no1 was culpable or committed a crime? And if indeed Mahama is gulty of any crime, its a pity and sad then that Akufo Addo and the 'we have the men' brigand of crooked lawyers failed the nation by letting Mahama off scot free, for him to go on and win a land slide victory. If Mahama is guilty then Akufo Addo should hung his head in shame for talking big whilst delivering zero.

General Mosquito,very well said sir.The OSP like EOCO were set to deceive our development partners that we are serious about the anti-corruption fight so it is all noise but little action and a drain on scarce resources.This was s so because the politicians who come to their attention are the people exercising power either in government or opposition.JM has 2/3 majority in parliament and so he has the opportunity to bring positivity to the anti- corruption fight by strengthening the laws.The President can send his AG to Nigeria where the anti-corruption laws and institutions like the EFCC and ICPC bite.The OSP as it is now is a fertile ground for transactional activities.

It is a fact that most public sector corruption can be largely attributable to the AG Department. I can't really fathom how sperating the AG Department from the Ministry of Justice can be effective in checking filthy corrupt and bribe prone State Attorneys who are only keen in defending corrupt top politicians and public servants. The cardinal truth is that 90% cases of public sector corruption is due to the fact that the AG have a very repressive mentality in concealing institutional corruption and malpractices at the behest of high profile persons for a combination of factors ranging from politics, nepotism, cronyism, bribery and inducement. In my candid opinion, I don't think it is a problem of poor renumeration and conditions of service for State Attorneys because evidence doesn't point to that. It is a problem of sheer greed by the AG Department Staff which has made the AG pivotal in Ghana's corruption industry. The sustainability of the corruption syndicate in Ghana is directly depended on the AG who are neck deep in promoting and festering public sector corruption. The AG just come to Court with the sole objective of doing everything possible to kill cases and circumvent justice in the interest of top politicians and public servants who engage in institutional malpractices and corruption. The rot in the AG itself is what is facilitating the high attrition rate of lawyers from the AG who want to be professional and ethical in their duties.. It is mostly the corrupt State lawyers who are there with some very notable in this business and enterprise of taking bribes from corrupt public officers to connive with the Court and the Judiciary to suppress and kill cases to prevent accountability. Even though one of the main functions of the AG is to promote the rule of law, the AG is most notorious in suppressing rule of law and promoting lawlessness and lack of accountability. I am surprise most Governments talk about corruption without talking about serious reforms and even radical ones to deal with public sector corruption. The human factor of moral decadence, unethical and unprofessional lawyers in there for selfish gains will always be threat to corruption and will have national security implications in future because litigants with genuine cases who feel hard done by an AG Department that don't believe in transparency, accountability and candour will begin to go after these corrupt lawyers in future. They connive with the Courts and Judiciary to enforce illegal and criminal payments of judgement debts to help fleece the State by top politicians and public servants. On the contrary, they suppress powerless and vulnerable citizens with legitimate claims against the State in wrongful termination of contracts in typical cases of witch-hunting and persecution of the Ghanaian Civil Servant going about his normal duties become an inadvertent victim of a very corrupt system. My fervent belief is that very little can be done in the fight against public sector corruption with the current set up of the AG Department, with particular reference to the negative human factor. One cannot tell how separation of the Justice Ministry from AG or scraping the OSP can deal with the inherent but significant problems within Ghana's AG that remains by far the biggest threat and most significant factor in public sector corruption.. Unfortunately, the significant influence of the AG and Ghana's justice system in our Courts, the Judiciary especially the General Legal Council and Office of the Chief Justice will aways be the overriding factor responsible for the rot and malpractice in our Courts especially if high profile public servants with power and money are involve in cases. The issue is simple, the Government should focus on reforms in our AG Department with or without the Justice Ministry or OSP.

As for today I support general Mosquito for the first time, that useless office should be shut down without delay it’s just a waste of taxpayers money, we need a fast track court like president Kuffour brought to send many criminals to jail and not that useless office who can’t even prosecute a chicken let alone human beings they are all corrupt.can you imagine former CEO who stole millions of taxpayers money a woman thief is hiding in American the OSP couldn’t make any attempt to bring her back to face jail even though she has been sentenced already. instead he declared a former minister on a sick bed a fugitive unbelievable that shows how incompetent he is .every single penny counts we can’t continue to pay him for no work done just to live like a Arab king he’s got more security and expensive cars than the president himself he should be sacked and close down the office.
