I have two “did they hear me’s” this week. Martin Amidu has taken up personally what they would not allow him to do as Attorney General. I said a couple of weeks back that Martin must give back to the tax payer through his vigilante crusade, what we paid for him to become a lawyer. This week, I read his salvo to the Supreme Court, I am still grinding my way through it, but I think the gist of his petition does what the AG should be doing to ensure that Agbesi Woyome is essentially prosecuted to the fullest and is clearly found guilty (paraphrasing mine). So, I feel vindicated.

When the Supreme Court fixes a date for the hearing, I urge all Ghanaians to make their way to the Court halls and I dare Government to declare a holiday and place large screen TVs out in the gardens for the spill over. I dare Government. We will have our own Martin day and the taxpayer’s money will not have been in vain. Will other “Martins” please stand up? We need you now.

On Friday 29th June, the Daily Graphic started serializing the report of the Constitution Committee. Only last week I protested that we taxpayers had spent a whopping $2 million on this report and we do not have the privilege of reading it. Before I could say Dzigbodi, it was there in print. I am looking forward to the next sections. So far, Government seems to be making sense in most of its remarks and I am wondering what Professor (Emeritus) Albert Kodzo Fiadjoe and his team were reading.

I doubt if it was from my piece though, I think they had it ready to go before I finished my article, but I did say it ahead of the release. This week, if mayhap they hear me again, I am asking ……. more
