Interior Minister Dr Benjamin Kumbour has been directed to take temporary charge of the Attorney-General’s Department following the dismissal with immediate effect of Mr Martin Amidu for what the presidency calls misconduct.A statement signed by Chief of Staff, Mr Henry Martey Newman, said Mr Amidu conducted himself in ways incompatible with a minister of state during a meeting chaired by president John Mills last Friday, January 13, 2012.“Mr Amidu’s behaviour is incompatible with acceptable standards expected of ministers and appointees of the president,” the statement noted.President Mills has consequently directed Dr Kumbour to prosecute all cases in which the state has an interest in including the infamous Woyome judgment debt case.Only this Monday, the dismissed AG, Martin Amidu went to court to amend his writ, contending the NDC financier had no contract with the state and therefore lacked locus on which to bring an action against the state.He argued if Mr Woyome had any contract at all, it was procured by fraud.That case, the president said, and all others must be pursued to their logical conclusion by Dr Kumbour who will remain responsible for the Justice Ministry until a substantive minister is appointed.
