Martin Amidu: Most Ghanaians Have Lost Faith In The Special Prosecutor Office, And I Agree With Them - HRH Doe

HRH Oscar Yao Doe, the Chairman of Doscar Group Holdings has said he shares same school of thought with most Ghanaians that the Special Prosecutor's Office has become redundant, and irrelevant because it has lost public confidence, and that it should be abolished immediately to protect public purse.

In a public post today, the renowned businessman could not hide his displeasure over the dissapointment expressed by Ghanaians about the failure of Honourable Martin A.B.K Amidu appointed as Special Prosecutor by President Akufo-Addo 2 years ago. According to him, Ghanaians have been shocked by the SP's silence on many corrupt activities going on in the current administration, against the trust and hope reposed in him by them upon his appointment in 2018. He asked if the Special Prosecutor's Office is worth the tax payers' funding after all. Read his full post below.. 

Once upon a time, 11th January 2018 (to be precise), Ghanaians were in a jubilant mood. The excitement could be felt across the country, because (most people thought) it was a good news. 

The good news was that the self-proclaimed citizen vigilante, Honourable Martin A.B.K Amidu had been appointed the long-awaited Special Prosecutor.

(But the question now is) is it worth the tax payers'funding? What was the main aim of creating the Special Prosecutor's office? Is it to score political points? Or using the office to please every seating or future President, to carry out their personal political witch-hunts of investigations?

Or (is it) to protect the public purse? Which is which?

We should be careful not to set a dangerous precedent which could become catastrophic for our justice system.

Has Martin Amidu performed well? Has he been truthful, fair and honest in the discharge of his duty?

After 2 years in office, Ghanaians are surprised about the SP's silence on many corrupt activities going on in the 'opens' with government machineries and it appointees.

Most people are saying the Special Prosecutor's Office has become 'redundant' and 'no more relevant', because it has lost public confidence, and that it should be abolished immediately to protect public purse. Most Ghanaians no longer have faith in the Special Prosecutor's Office.

I personally agree totally with this overwhelming Public sentiment. I do.

Appointment Of Martin Amidu As Special Prosecutor Is The Biggest Deception Of The Akufo-Addo Presidency - HRM Oscar Doe

HRH Oscar Yao Doe has said that the appointment of Mr Martin Amidu as Special Prosecutor is the biggest deception by the Akufo-Addo administration so far. According to the renowned businessman, this conclusion was confirmed by the actions of the Special Prosecutor Office since he took office.

KingOscar wondered why despite verifiable corruption activities going on publicly in the Akufo-Addo government, the Special Prosecutor Office has not prosecuted anyone. He questioned the capability of Amidu as Special Prosecutor. 

Read his public statement below.. 

#HRHOSCARYAODOE EXCLUSIVE: Based on his own actions, I have now come to the conclusion that President Akufo-Addo's deceptions and lies are beyond comprehension. But the biggest of all the deceptions of the Akufo-Addo Presidency is the appointment of Martin Amidu as the Special Prosecutor! 

There are a lot of plain and verifiable corruption activities going on publicly in the Akufo-Addo government, but (there has been) 'No Show' from the much hyped Special Prosecutor Office. Who (even) knows maybe something is going on?

That Office is no more effective! Perhaps (its) dead and gone! Who knows? (Maybe) it should be taken out of taxpayers' burden. 

The Special Prosecutor's Office should be an elected public position. (Possibly) that could make a huge difference. It is also possible (that) Mr Amidu is facing genuine constraints or perhaps, (he is) not capable! Which is which?

Nonetheless, the Special Prosecutor is obviously not special at all, based on his own deeds and actions since he was appointed. There is nothing special about the Special Prosecutor's Office, based on facts.
