Nominated SP Kissi Agyebeng Can Be Easily Influenced – J. A. Kufuor Foundation CEO

Chief Executive Officer of the John Agyekum Kufour Foundation, Professor Baffour Agyemang-Duah says the newly nominated Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng can easily succumb to pressure from authorities in the course of his duties.

Speaking on Class FM, he noted that although Mr Agyebeng’s background makes him qualified for the role, his closeness with the President’s cousin, Gabby Otchere-Darko could make him rarely independent.

“We all know that Gabby is a strong pillar in this government – and that he [Agyebeng] has been in cases defending certain things and all. If you take all that into account, then you are compelled to raise serious doubts about his capacity to perform because if I take his relationships into account, then my answer immediately will be that he will be easily influenced by authority and that brings the issue of conflict of interest if, in fact, he has dabbled in the Agyapa deal as a defendant or employer or working for the government or the Attorney General”, Prof Agyemang-Duah argued.
