I took an oath to do my best, and that is what I will do although I feel frustrated – Special Prosecutor

30 Nov

Kissi Agyebeng, Special Prosecutor, says he took an oath to do his job to the best of his ability and that is what he will continue to do.

He said, ‘In my life, when I take on the reins to do something, I do it to the best of my ability,’ he said on Wednesday when he addressed the press about the frustration he was experiencing in line with his work.

He was responding to a question on whether he should resign from his job considering the challenges he highlighted.

He stated that, while he did not want to sound like a prophet of doom, a doom is impending and that soon we could have a murdere walk into a court and stop a court process against him or her.

He expressed concern that the growing practise of some judges skewing cases against the OSP could have an impact on the fight against corruption.

“As I said, I wasn’t sounding like a prophet of doom but there is Doom looming ahead of us, that very soon a murderer will boldly walk to go to seek an injunction. Should I feel frustrated and resign? I took an oath and in my life when I take on the reins to do something, I do it to the best of my ability,’ he said on Wednesday.

“Let us bring before you the body of our investigation as evidence. If you look at it, and you decide that the evidence does not shore up to the standard of proof required in criminal cases, you can dismiss it but don’t prevent us from doing our work, from investigating. It is dangerous.”
