The Ghana School of Law has been referred to the Attorney General for potential prosecution following alleged violations.
The Auditor General’s report highlighted that the school breached the Procurement Act in acquiring items worth over GH₵300,000 from 17 different entities in 2021 and 2022.
This issue was raised at the Public Accounts Committee meeting on Wednesday, August 14, 2024.
Despite the school’s attempt to justify bypassing legal procedures in their procurement process, PAC Chairman James Klutse Avedzi dismissed their explanations.
“You have admitted that you have flouted so we will recommend you for prosecution,” he said.
Despite the School’s request for pardon, the Chairman indicated that “what we can do is to refer you to the court that the court will set you free.”
“We don’t have that power here to do it. We can only recommend you, then the one that has the power will listen to your plea, go home free and don’t do it again” he added.
