A section of Ghanaians gathered with a single mission: to demand the removal of the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng. Their reason was clear; they believed he had failed to fulfill the mandate of his office. The previous day, Apostle Abraham Larbi Lincoln, the lead convener of the protest, addressed the media. He asserted that the group had lost confidence in the Special Prosecutor and called on President John Dramani Mahama to terminate Mr. Agyebeng’s appointment. The protest, themed “Agro Ne Fom,” was intended to shine a spotlight on what the group described as inefficiency within the Office of the Special Prosecutor. “We will be in our reds, and we will be there to present our case. If he doesn’t listen, then we know the kind of person he is. We are marching straight to the Jubilee House, and we will petition the President,” Apostle Lincoln declared, emphasizing the group’s determination. Apostle Lincoln was quick to clarify that their demonstration was not driven by personal animosity. “We do not hate Mr. Agyebeng,” he explained, “but we believe the office must be either reformed or dissolved entirely, with all staff removed.” Adding to the chorus of criticism, private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu revealed that 15 separate petitions had already been filed seeking the Special Prosecutor’s removal. “When was the last time you heard of other persons subject to Article 146 proceedings ever having 15 petitions filed against them? That tells you that there is something wrong,” Mr. Kpebu asserted, highlighting the growing public dissatisfaction with the office. As the protestors prepared to march to the Jubilee House to present their petition, the nation watched to see how the President would respond to their demands and whether the calls for change at the Office of the Special Prosecutor would be heeded.
