SP OFFICE NOT MANDATED FOR THE AGED-LAWYER SARFO DUKU REFUTES INUSAH FUSEINI'S CLAIM

Sarfo Duku, Lawyer has debunked the suggestion by the Former Legislator of Ghana's parliament, Inusah Fuseini that Lawyer Kissi Agyebeng is too young for the job.

According to Inusah, the office needs especrienced person in life but not young people looking at Agyebeng's age.

Former Member of Parliament for Tamale Central, Inusah Fuseini says the Attorney General’s nominee for the Special Prosecutor position is too young to fight against corruption.

According to the former legislature, although Kissi Agyebeng is qualified to head the anti-graft office, he is too young to fight against corruption in the country.

“Did the President search well enough and not found a worthy replacement for Martin Amidu other than Kissi Agyebeng? Why did the President settle on Agyebeng, when Agyebeng after seven years will be around 50 years?” the former MP asked.

“The Special Prosecutor’s position which is a risky job needs someone who is further advanced in life to resist any form of temptations due to how complicated the fight against corruption is” Mr. Inusah stressed. “As a lawyer and former MP, my only concern is his age,” the former Minority Spokesperson on Constitutional, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Committee of Parliament added in an interview on Monday.

But commenting on Omanbapa Morning Show on Silver FM, Private Legal Practitioner, Lawyer Sarfo Duku argued that, the work of the Special Prosecutor is not mandated for the aged.

He told the host, Nana Ampratwum that, Agyebeng's especrienced makes him one of the right men to hold the office.
