Amidst a growing controversy over allegations of unethical behaviour and witness tampering, several prominent legal experts and a leading think-tank have called for the resignation of Ghana's Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Godfred Yeboah Dame.

The controversy erupted following accusations by Richard Jakpa, the third accused in the high-profile ambulance procurement case, that Dame attempted to coerce him into implicating Minority Leader Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson.

This has led to a wave of criticism and demands for accountability from various quarters. Below are some of the critics calling for Dame’s resignation:

Kwadwo Appiagyei-Atua, University of Ghana Law School

A vocal critic of the Attorney General's actions, Professor Kwadwo Appiagyei-Atua from the University of Ghana Law School, has called for Dame's resignation. In an appearance on TV3's Ghana Tonight show, Prof. Appiagyei-Atua stated, “If what the NDC version that I heard is true, it raises a lot of credibility issues for the Attorney-General. The most honorable thing will be for the A-G to resign.”

Bobby Banson, Robert Smith Law Group

Lead consultant for the Robert Smith Law Group, Bobby Banson, echoed these sentiments, advising that Dame should step down to preserve the integrity of the office. “If I were in the Attorney General's position, I would have resigned as a means of preserving the credibility of the office,” Banson stated, emphasizing the gravity of the allegations made by Jakpa during the trial of Dr. Ato Forson.
