    We all know that all that the AG wants to do is arrest Ofori Atta in the Wontumi style and never be able to prosecute successfully.

    Very well said Prof. Azar. This criminal lawyer will surely defend another criminal for a good payday.

    If Mahama were guilty of corruption, the law should have held him accountable. The fact that the Airbus investigation ended without a conviction points to a lack of evidence to substantiate the claim of wrongdoing.

    Very politically motivated: the NDC Attorney General sets free all the NDC wrongdoers on trial and goes exclusively after NPP wrongdoers.
    That is politics in the pursuit of justice at the lawcourts.
