PETITION TO EXPEDITE ACTION ON THE WAYOME COURT CASE
We, the members of The Alliance for Accountable Governance (AFAG),
based on feedback received from the general public following
our May 9, 2012 press conference are convinced beyond all
reasonable doubt, that the good people of this country are in
no way prepared for further delays in commencing the trial of
Mr. Alfred Agbesi Woyome.
To this end, AFAG acting on behalf of Ghanaians is calling on
you to take a cue from the words of Mr. Martin Amidu, former
AG and Minister of Justice that “time is of essence now
otherwise the Republic would be perceived as unnecessarily
delaying the case”. In addition, the words of advice from
Justice Ajet-Nassam, the trial judge, to the prosecution team
to “get serious or throw in the towel” should inform you to
act appropriately.
Nonetheless, we are of the conviction that in the interest of
the people of this country; your outfit will not further delay
the opening of the case when court resumes this week. AFAG has
no doubt that, there is enough evidence and material available
for the state to commence the trial.
Sir, in the interest of the state, we urge you to Act swiftly
by commencing the trial to help dispense justice.
Yours faithfully,
Nana Ayew Afriyie (Dr)
Arnold Boateng
Chairman General Secretary
