Ambulance Trial: "I'm always ready, I will meet him at the Supreme Court" - Richard Jakpa calls out AG

Businessman, Richard Jakpa, who is  the third accused in the Ambulance trial, says he is unconcerned about attempts by the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice Godfred Yeboah Dame to appeal the Court of Appeal's decision that acquitted and discharged Minority Leader Dr Cassel Ato Forson and himself.

The Attorney General has announced that he will appeal the verdict at the Supreme Court.

Speaking to journalists in Accra, Richard Jakpa said he is unconcerned by the A-G's threat and is willing to face Godfred Yeboah Dame in any court of his choice.

"I’m more than prepared, I’m always ready, if the Attorney-General wants to to go the Supreme Court to appeal against the ruling, I will meet him there. Even if he doesn’t win and he wants to go for a review, I will meet him there. Wherever he wants to go, I will meet him there, I don’t have an issue at all."

“I’m ready for this government, all that I can say is that my enemies and detractors have been put to shame, I have been vindicated,” Richard Jakpa said.
