Convenor of the #FixTheCountry movement Mawuse Oliver Barker-Vormawor has belittled the Office of the Special Prosecutor for the manner in which the office offers summoned the embattled City and county Chief Executive nominee, Sarfo Kantanka, over alleged bribery associated with assembly members. Mr Barker-Vormawor, who is a lawyer and lawful researcher with the University associated with Cambridge, wondered why the particular summons was made public plus why Mr Sarfo Kantanka who is resident in Juaben in the Ashanti Region has been summoned to the Office from the Special Prosecutor in Accra. “Erm, this [summons] is not a Push statement. It is a letter tackled to a particular individual. So just why has the OSP put this particular out in the Public domain? I understand we are keen to build a good institutional reputation for the OSP but let’s balance that will with the privacy interests associated with persons potentially in conflict with all the law. So this next stage is quite mundane. But I actually find the “irony” of how the penchant for centralizing strength “clashes with the promise associated with decentralization, quite amusing. Allow me to explain. This man is within Juaben; he could as well are usually in Bole-Bamboi. The offenses relate with “our decentralization”. But he could be being asked to attend a gathering with the OSP in Accra, ” he said from the public summons. Mr Barker-Vormawor contends that the behavior from the OSP is reminiscent of those of colonial authorities. He asked yourself which of the agencies can call the shots considering the fact that the Police Service had previously arrested Mr Sarfo Kantanka and taken his declaration. “We are just repeating exactly the same way the colonial regulators operated. Sit in Accra and rule from there. Accra politicians and their establishments no go kee myself. It was my understanding that this particular gentleman was first picked up with the Police; and gave the statement under caution. Therefore which of the criminal investigative agencies is calling scoops here. If he denies the invitation what will the particular OSP do? Tell the authorities to arrest him once again? ” He wondered. Mister Barker-Vormawor would want Mr Sarfo Kantanka to refuse the particular summons so as to expose the particular apparent confusion in these condition investigative agencies. “The management lawyer in me, desires him to refuse the particular invitation, just so I will discover how confused everyone is going to be, ” he recommended. In the mean time, Mr Sarfo Kantanka provides denied paying bribes towards the assembly members even though they are captured in a viral video clip asking that his bribes be returned to your pet after the assembly members did not confirm him as MCE for the second time.
