Accra, Ghana - Nov 13, 2024 - Godwin Edudzi Tamakloe, Legal Director of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has accused Attorney General Godfred Yeboah Dame of contradicting himself over the Supreme Court's recent ruling on the Speaker of Parliament's declaration.
The Supreme Court deemed the Speaker's declaration unconstitutional with a 5-2 verdict.
Tameklo Questions Attorney General's Motives
Speaking onJoy News’ PM Express show on Tuesday Nov 12,Tamakloe pointed out that Dame had initially argued that the Speaker's lawyer, Thaddeus Sory, lacked proper authority to represent the Speaker.
Furthermore, Dame suggested that he himself should defend the action in constitutional cases.
“If my memory serves me right, in the last hearing, the Attorney General sought to create the impression that Thaddeus Sory, the Speaker’s lawyer, lacked proper authority to represent the Speaker.''
“So if the Attorney General, by coincidence or otherwise, has been given what he wished for, why the complaint?” he asked, suggesting that Dame’s stance on the Speaker’s legal representation aligned with the outcome,'' he stated.
