The Minority leader and Member of Parliament for Efutu, Alexander Afenyo Markin, has expressed his disapproval of the attacks directed at the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) after it declared former Finance Minister Kenneth Nana Yaw Ofori-Atta a fugitive.
In an interview with Joy News’ Elton Brobbey, Afenyo-Markin shared his perspective on the matter.
“I don’t think there was any reason to attack him,” Afenyo Markin said, referring to the Special Prosecutor.
“If there are disagreements, there are systems in place to address them. The OSP is a respected institution in its field, and its work should be respected.”
When asked about the minority’s concerns regarding the situation, Afenyo-Markin acknowledged that such disagreements are common.
However, he emphasised that he took it upon himself to engage with the concerned parties and help manage the situation.
“By the grace of God, the necessary clarity has been provided,” he added. He further explained that Ken Ofori-Atta is undergoing medical treatment and has submitted evidence from a respected medical facility to support his case.
He also mentioned that, in light of this new information, the OSP has set 2nd June as the date for further engagement.
“As a nation, we should allow our institutions to function properly and not attack the individuals involved,” Markin concluded.
