A legal practitioner, Kissi Adjabeng has counseled the Attorney-General to concentrate on retrieving the money from Waterville as ordered by the Supreme Court instead of seeking merely to take credit from the ruling.
The A-G's department is battling Martin Amidu who filed the suit at the Supreme Court over who should take the credit. The A-G's department insists it fought in Martin Amidu's corner in the Waterville case .
A statement issued by Deputy A-G, Dr. Dominic Ayine, said the office “personally researched and supervised the filing of processes in support of Mr. Amidu. This is also a matter of public record and can be verified”.
But former Attorney-General Martin Amidu has challenged the claims by the A-G's Department that it helped him in his fight to retrieve the money wrongly paid to Waterville Holdings Ltd.
In view of this clash of claims and counter-claims, Kissi Adjabeng said counseled the A-G to focus on retrieving the $47 million from Waterville. The A-G has so far been silent over modalities to be taken in retrieving the said money.
“That should be our main concern… how we recoup the money”, he said adding that claims about “who did what and who helped who” should take backstage. His charge was “let’s go after Waterville”.
He suspected, Waterville may have foreign interest and that ensuring the “fruit of this judgment is really realized” ought to be the country’s prime concern.
The lawyer said Ghana has six years to enforce the judgment, nonetheless “the faster the better”.
