As a longstanding senior member of the criminal organization posing as a political party, who served as no-other, but the Finance Minister in their 8-year period of governance, Ofori Atta's recent declaration of distrust in the efficacy of the Ghanaian legal system, can in effect be considered as the NPPs subconscious sentiments about our legal system.

What beats all of this comedy is that, the Almighty Bar Association - an evident ally of the neocolonial neoliberal NPP organization, has not risen up to the occasion to either dismiss or confirm Ofori Attas trashing of our judiciary at the international level.

At this point, I think it is incumbent upon the current Attorney General, to hold an international Press Conference to explain the circumstances of this case and to vehemently dismiss Ofori Atta's attempt to publicly denigrate our state institutions in his desperate effort to evade accountability.

ANOKWALE, Frank Agyena-Karikari is not boastful but truthful. Granted that I am boastful, that is not a crime. Let me quote you a Nigerian Proverb that I learned from China Achebe. It goes thus: THE LIZARD THAT JUMPED FROM THE TOP OF THE IROKO TREE SAID THAT IT WILL PRAISE ITSELF IF NOBODY DOES. ANOKWALE, I am not boastful but very well read, learned, and travelled. Should you have a problem with that? I am sorry for you and also pity you for burdening yourself with such a problem.

Yes, I am RELAXING IN MY FILTHY DEN but I am glad I can get easy access to excellent Healthcare, Food, water, Electricity, very good regular and consistent salaried work, excellent accommodation than your Politicians have. I am also very distanced from Political arbitrariness, Stupidities of State Security people, and have so much freedom than you ever envisaged and possibly dreamed of. You can continue to squat in your dirty and nasty environment. I am pretty excellent and extremely happy with where I am. You can cry for yourself.

And Frank Agyena-Karikari has been fully married for decades. I am not your kind of Ghanaian Politicians and other people who continue to Jump on many women, including even married ones. I have learned and know that the downfall of many women have been their abnormal lifestyle, especially relationships with women, including married ones.

She is a British attorney. By the way m6 sister's name is Akuokor. It's a common name for twin girls in our Ga culture.

Things that are actually hurting Ghana's case:
- Premature Red Notice and defective extradition request
- Well known corrupt judiciary that follows neither the letter nor intent of the law
- OSP's dismal record of obtaining convictions
- Public statements by public officials
- Common statements regarding Abu Trica -- especially the prevalent expression that fraud is not a crime
- Ongoing virtual trials, including NAM1
- Ghana's resolution calling for slave reparations coupled with its refusal to pay reparations for being an active kidnapper and trader

@ Truth.

Utter rubbish. If Ofori Atta was a regular kojo Mensah who strayed to the US in search of greener pastures, he would have been typically bundled back to Ghana in chains on his hands, feet and legs by ICE. The bottom line in this Ofori Atta matter is that, he is very likely well placed to make his host a few billion dollars richer in a country where money comes first, second and third before any other consideration on any issue under the sun.

Who is Amanda Clinton? Is she really a legal expert of any sort? Or are the West's bamboozlers inflating her ego in order to lie to Africans to adopt their customs? I challenge Amanda Clinton OPENLY TO A LEGAL DEBATE ON THE SUBJECT MATTER OF . . . ANYTHING GOES.

Next, I challenge her to openly state who taught her LAW FROM YOUTH. Jesus is Lord!

If Ken Ofori-Atta had stolen anything from the treasury with concrete evidence, why not try him in the court like NPP did to Sedinam Tamakloe? Whatever ICE does with Ken, has nothing to do with any corruption cases in Ghana because the US has no supervision over our courts in Ghana.

I am daring NDC to put Ken through the courts if they have any evidence of corruption on his part. Since NDC came to power, how many NPP members have they prosecuted and jailed? They just want to mock and disgrace Ken and nothing else.

You seem to be forgetting that this ran-away Finance Minister made it known that he has plans on returning to Ghana to face any charges levelled against him, once he's done with medical treatment. Apparently, that medical treatment is his application to become a permanent resident of the USA. He's feigning illness to keep from having to return to Ghana to account for the looting allegations made against him. Comical.

Jesus is Lord! Jesus Christ may you bless all Ghanaian women until eternity!

May these women know truth as never taught in the history of Ghana before. May WHOREDOM AND OBSTINACY FAIL FROM OUR FAMILIES UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE! In Jesus' name I pray. Halleluyah! Amen!

Since many African women have become so OBSTINATE (aka STUBBORN) in upholding value systems that DO NOT line up with righteous laws, it is imperative to enact laws that DISBAR women from inheriting MEN'S PROPERTIES WHEN THERE IS A DIVORCE. IN ADDITION, THERE MUST BE A FORUM TO DEAL WITH THE LOSS OF DIGNITY AMONG THE GIRLCHILDREN OF AFRICA!

There are too many STUPID GHANAIAN WOMEN TODAY WHO THINK THAT LAW AND LAWS SHOULD BE MADE FOR THEIR WHIMS TO BE ASSUAGED.

If the legal system finds it fit to deal with the former finance minister...it will...if it says otherwise there's nothing the govt of Ghana can do. Not sure who this woman is...but she's nothing in the scheme of things as far as the justice system in the US is concerned. Its a lot going on in Ghana...maybe she should focus over there.

While the details surrounding bonds and monitoring may generate discussion, many Ghanaians today are far more concerned about the broader realities facing the country. At a time when energy costs continue to rise, inflation is putting pressure on households, and the general cost of living is becoming increasingly unbearable, the focus of public discourse should reflect these urgent challenges.

We are dealing with persistent unemployment, struggling small businesses, declining purchasing power, and systemic issues such as poor road infrastructure, pressure on the healthcare system, and gaps in public service delivery. These are the issues that directly affect the everyday lives of citizens.

In that context, continued emphasis on individual legal situations risks diverting attention from conversations that could drive meaningful change. It’s not about elevating or diminishing anyone, but about ensuring that the national conversation remains aligned with the priorities of the people.

There is also the need to be mindful that such narratives, if overemphasized, can unintentionally deepen divisions and create unnecessary tension. As someone with influence, your voice could be more impactful if directed toward highlighting solutions, accountability, and policies that address these pressing economic and social concerns.
