Former Member of Parliament [MP] for Bantama constituency, Henry Kwabena Kokofu has applauded President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for appointing Martin Alamisi Amidu as the country's first Special Prosecutor.
According to him he knows Martin Amidu to be a no nonsense man and believe he will work tirelessly and flawlessly based on the mandate given to him without sparing anybody who falls victim to the law as well as not considering their political party colours.
“Martin Amidu is the type who voluntarily and always brings to the public domain any corrupt scandal he comes across especially persons of public institutions, therefore he is the right person to occupy such an office”, he said.
Speaking on UTV’s ‘Adekye Nsroma’ programme, Henry Kokofu said “I was pleased President Akufo-Addo made the right and perfect choice by nominating Martin Amidu as Special Prosecutor, frankly my heart was filled with joy and my headache at the time relieved as soon as the President mentioned the nominated Special Prosecutor”.
“I just felt like a problem troubling me for years has been relieved of my head”, he added.
Kwabena Kokofu urged members of the National Democratic Congress [NDC] to keep quiet as they watch the office of the Special Prosecutor do their work.

Amidu is corrupt and bankrupt in morals, so what does he stand for. indiscipline is corruption. maybe kokofu is trying to seek attention from the government because he has been left out just like amidu with ndc. all politicians reason the same way in ghana- greedy and selfishness.
Corruption is a sin against God's creation and humanity. I it is the root of all evil (1 Timothy 6:10). It is the cause of poverty, social and moral decadence, poor education and health delivery, social injustice, lack of infrastructure, social amenities and progress. It is also, to a large extent, the cause of of many accidents, endemic diseases, unemployment, robbery, environmental degradation, social disorder and breakdowns. Corruption is more evil than any single sin that one can name. Therefore, the passion to fight corruption must be desired and supported by all who love God and care for his creation. The fight against corruption is a very important service rendered to God to promote his goodness to all and protect his image and likeness in every individual person in the society. Let us all pray, support and join the fight against corruption as we struggle to promote the quality of life and the dignity of the human person. FrPOP
