President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has responded to allegations leveled against him and his government by Martin Amidu, the Special Prosecutor who recently resigned from his position.
Martin Amidu on Monday, November 16, 2020, resigned from his position as the special Prosecutor. In his resignation letter, he indicated that he believed that he was executing his mandate independently, the reactions he has received concerning the work make him convinced that he was not expected to exercise his independence as a special Prosecutor and that makes his work untenable.
Amidu's decision has received mixed reactions from the public with some accusing the president of having double standards on the fight against corruption.
