The Attorney- General and Minister of Justice, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has said there is nothing unconstitutional about former ministers being prosecuted in court on corruption charges.

"The whole process is the application of the rule of law, and the due process of law will persist to ensure that wrongdoers are prosecuted in a most transparent manner", he said at Berekum at the weekend.


Addressing a meeting of the Berekum constituency executive of the NPP, Nana Akufo-Addo said, "we are not witch-hunting anybody, it only shows our commitment to probity and accountability that all must adhere to".

He said fast track courts would be established in all the regional capitals within the government's four-year mandate to ensure the speedy trial of cases.
