The much anticipated Supreme Court ruling on an application by former Attorney General and Minister of Justice to examine embattled businessman, Alfred Agbesi Woyome over his controversial GHS51 million judgment debt saga has been postponed.

The ruling which was scheduled to be delivered today [Tuesday] was suspended until tomorrow [Wednesday] by Justice Anin Yeboah through the Supreme Court’s registrar. No reasons were given for the postponement.

Mr Amidu’s action followed a move by the Attorney General to discontinue oral examination of Mr Woyome.

Mr. Amidu in a statement said “I have this morning 4th November, 2016 filed an application at the Supreme Court for leave to examine the judgment debtor as the citizen public interest plaintiff in favour of whom the case was decided for the Republic of Ghana.”

“I have examined the circumstances surrounding the government’s reluctance to enforce the judgment and orders of the court with the seriousness which the matter deserves. I share the view expressed by objective and reasonable members of the public that because the government was the 1st defendant/respondent against whom the Supreme Court made declarations of unconstitutional conduct in paying the judgment debt to Alfred Agbesi Woyome, the government has been pretending for purely political reasons at each turn to take steps to enforce the judgment and orders of the court only to deliberately abort them.

“I agree that the government’s objective has always been to create the appearance and impression in the minds of the unsuspecting public that it is complying with the enforcement orders. The Attorney General’s latest application to discontinue the government’s application to examine its financier, Alfred Agbesi Woyome, is one more such trick to deceive the public and obstruct the course of justice.”
