DEAR PUBLIC READERS OF THE "GHANAWEB.COM",
IT IS A TRITE KNOWLEDGE THAT ALL PROFESSIONAL LAWYERS OF GHANA
ATTENDED GHANA SCHOOL OF LAW BEFORE THEIR CALLED OR ENROLLMENT TO THE
GHANA BAR.
THAT IT IS ALSO A TRITE KNOWLEDGE THAT ALL GHANAIAN LAWYERS ATTENDED
UNIVERSITY AND SUCCESSFULLY GRADUATED BEFORE THEIR ADMISSIONS TO THE
GHANA SCHOOL OF LAW.
THAT BASE ON THE ABOVE PREMISES THAT IT IS ASSUMED OR PRESUMED THAT
THE PROFESSIONAL LAW COURSES AT THE GHANA SCHOOL OF LAW ARE GRADUATE
OR POST-GRADUATE COURSES, THERETO.
TAKING COGNIZANCE OF THE ABOVE PREMISE THEN THE PROFESSIONAL LAW
COURSE QUALIFICATIONS NEED TO REFLECT A GRADUATE OR POST-GRADUATE
QUALIFICATIONS, THERETO, TO HELP CREATE A LEVEL PLAYING FIELDS IN THE
WORLD OF LAWYERS, THERETO.
THAT I WILL LIKE TO TAKE MY OWN PERSONAL RELATED EXPERIENCE AS AN
EXAMPLE AND A CASE STUDY TO HELP BOTH THE GHANA BOARD OF LEGAL
EDUCATION OF THE GENERAL LEGAL COUNCIL TO DEEPLY CONTEMPLATE, PONDER,
REFLECT OVER THESE RELATED ISSUES/MATTERS TO REVISIT THE
QUALIFICATIONS STATUS OF GHANA LAWYERS, THERETO.
THAT I WAS ADMITTED TO UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, KUMASI IN
1982 TO PURSUE THE BA(SOCIAL SCIENCES) DEGREE COURSE AND STUDIED IN
THE FIRST YEAR SOCIOLOGY< LAW & HISTORY IN ADDITION TO AFRICAN
STUDIES.
THAT FROM THE SECOND YEAR GOING THAT I PURSUED SOCIOLOGY AND LAW AND
SUCCESSFULLY GRADUATED, THERETO.
THAT WHILE THOSE STUDENTS/CANDIDATES WHO STUDIED LLB OR BA(LAW) AT
LEGON WERE ALLOWED TO PURSUE THE PRE-REQUISITE MANDATORY COURSES TO
GIVE THEM A DIRECT ADMISSION TO THE GHANA LAW SCHOOL THAT THOSE OF US
WHO STUDIED LAW AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, KUMASI JUST
FOR THE FACT THAT THE UNIVERSITY DID NOT HAVE A FULL FLEDGE FACULTY OF
LAW WITH THE LAW LIBRARY, THEN THAT TWO (2) OF THE MANDATORY
PRE-REQUISITE COURSES WERE REMOVED AND INSTEAD OPTIONAL COURSES WERE
RATHER ADDED THEREFORE WE WERE NOT GIVEN A DIRECT WALK IN TO THE GHANA
SCHOOL OF LAW AND WE WERE CONSIDERED NON-LAW GRADUATES, THERETO.
THAT THERE WAS AN ENTRANCE EXAMINATIONS CONDUCTED BY THE GHANA SCHOOL
OF LAW FOR ALL NON-LAW GRADUATES WHO WANTED TO PURSUE THE LAW COURSE
AND THE PROFESSIONAL BARRISTER-AT LAW (BL) COURSE. THERETO.
THAT AT OUR TIME ABOUT 300 UNIVERSITY NON-LAW GRADUATES TOOK PART IN
THE EXAMINATIONS AND ONLY 50 CANDIDATES WERE ADMITTED AND HAPPILY I
DID PASS THE EXAMINATIONS, THERETO.
THAT AT THE SAME TIME I WAS ALSO CALLED FOR AN INTERVIEW AT UNIVERSITY
OF GHANA FOR THE MASTER OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION COURSE, THERETO.
IN ADDITION, I WAS ALSO ADMITTED FOR THE POST_GRADUATE DIPLOMA IN
PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AT GHANA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT & PUBLIC
ADMINISTRATION (GIMPA) IN ACCRA.
THAT AT THE INTERVIEW AT LEGON FOR THE MASTER OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
COURSE IN 1992 THAT I WAS PREVAILED UPON BY SOME OF THE INTERVIEW
PANELIST RATHER TO CONSIDER TO PURSUE THE LAW COURSE AT THE GHANA
SCHOOL OF LAW AND THEREFORE I WAS PLACED ON THE "WAITING LIST",
THERETO.
THAT I DID PURSUE THE TWO (2) COURSES BOTH AT THE GHANA SCHOOL OF LAW
AND GHANA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT & PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AT GREEN
HILL, ACCRA AT THE SAME TIME BEFORE MY "EYE SURGERY" IN CAPE COAST.
THAT BY THE DIVINE WILL AND PROVIDENCE OF GOD THAT I DID SUCCESSFULLY
COMPLETE BOTH COURSES AT BOTH INSTITUTIONS, THERETO.
THAT AT THE GHANA SCHOOL OF LAW IN 1992-1994 THAT I DID SUCCESSFULLY
COMPLETE THE POST-GRADUATE PRELIMINARY LAW COURSE (PLC) AND IN
1994-1996 THAT I DID ALSO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE THE PROFESSIONAL LAW
(BL) COURSE AND WAS CALLED AND ADMITTED TO THE GHANA BAR ON ROLL OF
LAWYERS ON OCTOBER 4,1996.
THAT TO PURSUE A POST-GRADUATE OR GRADUATE COURSES FOR 4 YEARS THAT
THE PROFESSIONAL LAW QUALIFICATIONS STATUS WILL NOT REFLECT SUCH
POST-GRADUATE PROFESSIONAL LAW COURSES NEED MORE TO BE DESIRED AND
THEREFORE THERE IS THE NEED FOR BOTH THE BOARD OF LEGAL EDUCATION AND
THE GENERAL LEGAL COUNCIL TO REVISIT THE MATTER AND TO REVIEW SAME.
THAT I HAD BEEN ADMITTED TO THE PACE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW, WHITE
PLAINS, NEW YORK, USA AND PURSUED MASTER OF LAWS (LLM) COURSE IN
1999-2000. THAT WHILE SOME STUDENTS/CANDIDATES DID THE COURSE FOR TWO
TO THREE YEARS THAT I RESPECTFULLY DID THE LLM COURSE FOR ONE (1) FULL
YEAR AND PASSED ALL COURSES AND PAPERS, THERETO.
BUT BECAUSE OF DISCRIMINATION AND "ATROCIOUS LIES" THAT SOME PERSONS
PEDDLED ABOUT ME THAT I DID SUFFER THE DISCRIMINATION.
THAT IT WAS HON.FORMER MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT FOR HO WE#ST FRANCIS
AGGREY AGBOTSE AND LATER FORMER AG.INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE AND
FORMER GHANA HIGH COMMISSIONER TO SIERRA LEONE THAT GOT MY ACADEMIC
TRANSCRIPTS FROM GHANA SCHOOL OF LAW ON MY BEHALF AND HON>FRANCIS
AGBOTSE MAILED IT DIRECTLY TO THE NEW YORK STATE BAR EXAMINERS WHO DID
EVALUATE THE TRANSCRIPTS AND ADMITTED ME TO WRITE THE NEW YORK STATE
BAR EXAMINATIONS IN 1998, THERETO.
THAT BY THE EVALUATION OF MY GHANA SCHOOL OF LAW TRANSCRIPTS AND GAVE
ME THE ADMISSION INFERRED THAT I WAS GIVEN THE EQUIVALENT AS A
"JURIS-DOCTOR" SINCE ONE HAS TO BE A "JURIS-DOCTOR" BEFORE ONE CAN OR
COULD BE ADMITTED TO WRITE THE BAR EXAMINATIONS, THERETO.
HOWEVER, JUST BECAUSE THE EXACT POSITION OF "BARRISTERS" WERE NOT
DETERMINED AT THE UNITED NATIONS LEVEL THAT FORMER SECRETARY GENERAL
KOFI ANNAN WAS THE SUBSTANTIVE SECRETARY GENERAL AND I DID HELP HIM AT
THE TIME I WAS ALSO HELPING H.E.MR.FORMER PRESIDENT GEORGE W.BUSH AND
THEREAFTER, H.E.PROFESSOR DR.PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA CALLED ON ME TO
HELP HIM.
THAT RESPECTFULLY, I HAVE ALREADY GAINED WORLD RECOGNITION AND I DO
BELONG TO THE FOLLOWING BAR ASSOCIATION:
(i) GHANA BAR ASSOCIATION
(ii) ASSOCIATE MEMBER, AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION
(iii) COMMONWEALTH LAWYERS ASSOCIATION
(iv) INTERNATIONAL (GLOBAL/WORLD) BAR ASSOCIATION (IBA)
THAT IT IS FOR THE SAKE OF OUR YOUNGER FRIENDS AT THE BAR AND THOSE
WHO WILL BE JOINING THE BAR THAT I AM RESPECTFULLY HOLDING BRIEF FOR
AND ALL THOSE LAWYERS WHO HAVE THE WORLD AND INTERNATIONAL VISION,
ASPIRATIONS FOR AND ON BEHALF THAT I DO HUMBLY DARE TO SPEAK AND
MAKING THIS RELATED CASE, THERETO.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.
VERY TRULY YOURS,

Nonsense. Did you read the content of the communique? Go and form a political party if you want part of them. Aku Donkor owns a political party.
