Politician Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus, has extended his condolences to those who have worked with former Special Prosecutor Martin Amidu.
Media reports indicate that Amidu recently wrote to the President of Ghana, requesting the removal of current Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng.
The President has referred the petition to the Chief Justice to determine if there is a prima facie case.
Reacting to this development, A Plus expressed his disillusionment with Amidu, whom he once believed was committed to fighting corruption.
He now views Amidu as someone who uses his office to settle personal scores against his successors.
In a social media post, A Plus recounted his initial support for Amidu during his tenure as Attorney General, but highlighted his changing perspective after observing Amidu’s actions against successors Betty Mould-Iddrisu and Kissi Agyebeng.
A Plus wrote, “I was with the then vice president, John Dramani Mahama, at the castle the day Martin Amidu was sacked as attorney general. At the time, I believed his commitment to fighting corruption and upholding justice was crucial for our country’s progress.”
“However, with the benefit of hindsight and witnessing what he did to Betty Mould-Iddrisu, who succeeded him, and what he has done to Kissi Agyebeng, who also succeeded him as SP after this crybaby was removed for failing to apply common sense and running the OSP with emotions, hatred, pettiness, and a burning desire to waste taxpayer’s money on settling his personal scores, I have now come to understand clearly why he was sacked. My condolences to everyone who has spent an hour of their precious lives working with this monster.”
Ghanaians will now appreciate how confused and empty this Matin guy is. People mistakenly saw him as a crusader against corruption. But the reality is that Martin is far from such accolade. He is such a bully and vindictive person who will stop at nothing to get at anyone he considers an enemy. He has never done anything in the interests of the nation except to his own parochial interests.
