The Supreme Court will on Tuesday rule on whether or not Mr Martin Amidu should be granted leave to orally examine Mr Alfred Agbesi Woyome on his assets in relation to the retrieval of the Ghc51million judgement debt money.
At the court’s sitting on Thursday, the Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Mrs Marietta Brew-Appiah Oppon argued that Mr Amidu’s intervention would be unconstitutional.
Mr Amidu has filed an application at the Supreme Court, praying it to allow him to examine businessman Woyome, on his assets as part of efforts to retrieve the Ghcc51 million from him.
But the AG who was represented in court on Wednesday by her deputy, Mr Dominic Ayeni, in opposing the application said Mr Amidu was violating the constitution by coming to court to retrieve the money as it was only the AG’s office that was mandated by law to do so.
The AG also prayed the court to expunge certain parts of Mr Amidu’s affidavit alleging that President John Mahama ordered the AG to discontinue the suit, which also sought to examine Mr Woyome over the payment of the amount.
He claimed the allusions in paragraphs 9 to 21 of Mr Amidu’s affidavit were scandalous statements made against the Attorney General.
The court gave the date to rule after Mr Ayine moved an application praying the court to do so.

AFTER SUPREME COURT HAS FOILED EC AND NDC PLANS TO RIG WE SHOULD NOW PREVENT NDC FROM RIGGING BY CHECKING CAREFULLY THE PRINTING OF PINK SHEETS AND THEIR SERIEL NUMBERS SO THAT THEY WILL NOT PRINT DOUBLE PINK SHEETS, THE PRINTING OF BALLOT PAPERS SO THAT THEY WILL NOT PRINT DOUBLE BALLOT PAPERS. NDC WILL PAY HEAVILY TO POLLING AGENTS TO INFLUENCE THEM SO NPP SHOULD POLICE THE POLLING STATIONS VERY CAREFULLY TO PREVENT NDC FROM RIGGING

BARAWO MAHAMA HAS NO GBEWA TO CALL HIS VIOLENT MINISTERS AND FOOLSOLDIERS TO ORDER BECOS THAT IS PART OF THE PLAN TO RIG THE ELECTIONS. WITH HELP FROM BRIBED CHARLOTTE OSEI NDC PLANS TO SNATCH BALLOT BOXES, FILL THEM WITH THEIR ALREADY-THUMBPRINTED BALLOTS, BEAT UP AND ATTACK THEIR POLITICAL OPPONENTS SO THAT PEOPLE WILL BE SCARED TO GO OUT AND VOTE. BUT THEY LIE BAD! INSHA ALLAHU GHANA PEOPLE WILL FACE NDC BOOT FOR BOOT AND KICK OUT BARAWO MAHAMA AND HIS GANG OF KILAS OUT.
It is only in Ghana that you can find such story because a whole Supreme Court of a land -Ghana gives the AG powers to collect this woyome fraudulent payment ; the AG is incapable and refuses or drags its feet to do justice because the sitting President Jon Mahama blocks any initiative to collect the money for Ghanaians ; a patriotic Ghanaian volunteers to collect the robbery cash but the AG turns round and say you cannot do that because constitutionaly I the AG is suppose to collect the stolen ; but the same AG does not want to collect the stolen cash ; WHAT A GAME OF EVIL MINDSET BY THIS MRS BREW AGAINST GHANAIANS !!!!!!!!!THE MONEY MUST COLLECT BY HOOK OR CTOOK BECAUSE THIS VERY STRANGE !!!!!!!; FRANKLY THIS WOULD BE A GOOD FILL SET TO WATCH !!!!!!
It always suddens me if those who are in authority conspire with people to milk the state. Why has the AG's department discontinue persuing the Wayome case? Is it because Wayome mentioned the AG's name that he gave her $1000,000 some time ago. Mr. Amidu has shown time and time and again that he has this nation at heart. This is the kind of person Ghana need as a leader.God blesss you.
May i know the judges who sat on the case. Our system is rigged and we need great men to cleanse it because if we do not get the money before this year then people are going to be "LOCKED UP" come the 2017.
Mind you, Martin is in privy with the law and the constituztion of the Land and would not make this effort to retrieve the Money for Ghana, when the law made it impossdible to do so. Indeed, he was once Attorney General and Minister of Justice.I believe in Martin and he knows what he is doing.The Attorney General should stop seeking refugue from the incumbency and the President's so called order.for he is not above the law.
I think supreme court should use constitutional mandate to sell all the assets of Mr Woyome. AG involved the fraud case of woyome scandal but Mr Martin Amidu should continue and get the money for Us.
@appuu- 2 ; Massa ; What is your problem !!!!!!; Woyome was paid these monies by mistake through the collusion of Betty Mould ; Barton Oduro ; Alex Segbefia ; the AG starts dragging their feet because the AG is part of Tony Lithur law paratice and Tony Lithuir is the legal representative of the Jon Mahama and an oversight suopersor over the AG's department ; if woyome is put under pressure at court ; the thiff will expose everybody in this massive racket because he has the list of names and how the cash was spent ; NDC are in trouble again they may have to pay a lot of money to bribe the judges again to overturn the decision to re-examine woyome like they did in the election petition ; you see how when you throw a ball to the wall it comes bouncing back ; Jon Mahama thought he had all the powers and cause the release of the montie 3 ; thinking he can flex his muscles forgeting that Democracy is the proxy of the law; what Jon Mahama and the NDC does they cannot win because like Donald TRump saif he will set up a special prosecutor to jail Krooked Hilary ; so shall Nana Addo set up a Special prosecutor to jail Woyome ; Betty Mould ; Barton Oduro ; Alex Segbefia and others !!!!!!!!
