Prosecuting Juaben MCE Nominee For Corruption Is ‘Totally Useless’ – Maurice Ampaw Tells SP | Politics

Lawyer Maurice Ampaw is asking the Special Prosecutor (SP), Kissi Agyebeng to prosecute all politicians for giving out money and goodies during election times.
 
He said that will only justify his ‘bogus’ interest to arraign before court corruption allegations against the failed nominee for the position of Municipal Chief Executive for Juaben in the Ashanti.
 
Alexander Kwabena Sarfo-Kantanka wanted to be the Municipal Chief Executive for Juaben in the Ashanti Region.
 
He was nominated by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo but was rejected on the first and second occasions by the Assembly Members.
 
It later emerged in a video, where he was heard demanding a refund of a GH¢1000 he paid to an Assembly Member after he was rejected during the confirmation vote.
 
It was alleged that he paid money to some Assembly Members for his endorsement, yet they voted against him. 
 
However, Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng upon investigations charged the beleaguered failed MCE with 26 counts of corruption.
 
He said Alexander Kwabena Sarfo-Kantanka will be arraigned before the High Court in Kumasi on Wednesday, June 1, 2022.
 
But Maurice Ampaw noted that the reason for charging the failed MCE is “totally useless.”
 
“I have seen politicians giving huge monies and goodies during an election, are they in court now?” he questioned – adding, “this is bogus”.
