Ambulance Case: Take the witness stand if you are a man – Edudzi Tameklo dares Attorney General

The Head of Legal Affairs for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Edudzi Tameklo, has issued a daring challenge to Attorney General, Godfred Yeboah Dame.

He called on Godfred Dame to take the witness stand, questioning his willingness to testify under oath regarding his involvement in the case.

This challenge arises in response to recent comments made by the Attorney General during a town hall meeting with Ghanaian residents in the United Kingdom (UK).

Godfred Dame urged the public to dismiss the NDC’s arguments, which include an audio recording of a conversation he had with Richard Jakpa, the third accused in the trial.

Dame asserted that the NDC’s allegations had crumbled during Jakpa’s cross-examination.

In an interview with Citi News, Tameklo suggested that Dame’s reluctance to testify raises suspicions.

“If the Attorney General was doing what is right, why was he worried about being recorded? This bravery from a safe distance should be dismissed with alacrity. You leave Ghana, go to London, and start making noise,” he stated.

Tameklo challenged Godfred Dame’s integrity, saying, “If he is a man, nothing stops him from taking the witness stand. Let him declare, 'I am Godfred Yeboah Dame, the leader of the Bar and the Attorney General of the Republic, and I am taking the witness stand.'”

Highlighting an undisputed meeting between Dame, Jakpa, and a Supreme Court Justice, Edudzi Tamekloe questioned the Attorney General’s silence on the matter.

“You have not disputed that there was a meeting between yourself, Richard Jakpa, and the respected Justice of the Supreme Court. You have not denied it. So, my question to him is, in the absence of any denial on oath from him, which of these stories should be believed?”
