Artiste and radio presenter, Blakk Rasta, is questioning the competency of Ghana’s Attorney-General and Minister for Justice, Godfred Yeboah Dame after the Court of Appeal acquitted and discharged Ato Forson and Richard Jakpa in a case he brought before the court.

While hosting his show, the ‘Urban Blend’, Blakk Rasta expressed concerns over the competency of the country’s lawyer if persons he brought before the court for prosecution are acquitted by the court because he has no solid case against them.

He said, “If the courts are saying they have been acquitted and that there is no basis for this trial, then I sit back and wonder what kind of Attorney-General we have as a country.

“That he takes a matter to court and the court looks at the national lawyer in the face and say that you know this case you brought before us is a useless case, are you not a lawyer? Couldn’t you have known there’s no basis for this trial?

“So all the military jingoisms, oh he was sacked, oh he was a bad nut in the army and so forth came to nothing.”

Blakk Rasta also called for a thorough investigation and prosecution of persons found culpable of the leaked tapes that emerged during the course of the ambulance trial.


“Now what I want us to go into is those leaked tapes. If the Attorney-General can sit somewhere and say that, the president and finance minister are pushing me, we have to put an end to this trial and finish it quickly, so that we can jail Ato Forson, then I think that we live on dangerous grounds.
We must look at those tapes again and enforce the law,” he said.
