Private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has called on the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, to resign, arguing that he should step down if he has “a modicum of dignity” amid renewed scrutiny of the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP).
The call follows recent remarks by Mr Kissi Agyebeng, who raised concerns about political interference and alleged attempts by some actors to undermine the work of the office.
However, speaking on Channel One Newsroom , Mr Kpebu rejected those claims, insisting that the challenges confronting the OSP are self-inflicted rather than externally driven.
He further accused the Special Prosecutor of attempting to deflect attention from what he described as shortcomings in the handling of high-profile corruption cases, arguing that the office’s credibility has been weakened by its inability to secure key outcomes in major investigations.
“It is hogwash, absolute hogwash. It is the Special Prosecutor who has brought this unto himself. He should have left the office long time ago. Kissi is not fit for that office. If Kissi Agyebeng had any modicum of dignity, he would have resigned a long time ago. He should stop deceiving Ghanaians. You can’t let Ofori-Atta escape and still stay in that office. It is a way of diverting attention from his own shortcomings,” he said.
