Parliament’s Appointments Committee has recommended for approval, the nomination of Kissi Agyebeng as Special Prosecutor, by consensus.
This comes less than an hour after the law lecturer's over three-hour vetting by members of the Committee on Thursday.
Speaking to Adom News, moments after the meeting, Chairman of the Appointments Committee, Joseph Osei Owusu said the members were satisfied with the answers provided by the nominee, hence their approval.
Mr Osei Owusu, however, added that their report is expected to be laid before the House either on Friday July 23 or Tuesday July 27.
“He met all the requirements that we were looking for in a nominee for the Office of the Special Prosecutor. So the [Appointments] Committee unanimously agreed to recommend him to the House for approval."
