MP for Suame urges former Akufo-Addo appointees not to honour ‘Operation Recover All Loot’ invitation

Lawyer John Darko MP for Suame Constituency

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Member of Parliament for Suame, Lawyer John Darko, has called on former appointees of the Akufo-Addo government to refuse invitations to appear before what he describes as the “unconstitutional Operation Recover All Loot team” .

He made the statement during a press conference held in Parliament, where he criticized the initiative as politically motivated and lacking constitutional backing.

Lawyer John Darko accused the team of overstepping its mandate and functioning as a tool for persecuting officials of the former administration.

He argued that Ghana has constitutionally established institutions, such as the Police Service and the Office of the Special Prosecutor, which are equipped to investigate allegations of corruption or misconduct.

The formation of a separate body, he contended, undermines these institutions and creates unnecessary duplication.

“We have institutions under the Constitution that are mandated to investigate alleged wrongdoing. This so-called Operation Recover All Loot team is not one of them. Its existence and operations are unconstitutional and should be condemned,” he said.

The Suame MP urged former government officials not to participate in what he described as a politically motivated exercise aimed at tarnishing the image of individuals associated with the previous administration.

He stressed that any legitimate investigations should be conducted through constitutionally established channels.

“I advise all former appointees to decline invitations from this team. We cannot legitimize an unconstitutional body by cooperating with it. If there are genuine concerns, let them be handled by the appropriate institutions,” Mr. Darko added.

The MP further accused the team of engaging in harassment and intimidation. He suggested that the exercise was designed to score political points rather than uphold the rule of law or recover misappropriated state resources.

“Rather than focusing on due process, they are disturbing people unnecessarily and creating a climate of fear and uncertainty. This is not about justice; it is about political persecution,” he stated.

Legal and Institutional Ramifications

Lawyer John Darko also raised concerns about the implications of such actions for Ghana’s legal framework and democratic governance. He emphasized that all efforts to address corruption or mismanagement must align with the Constitution to maintain public trust and ensure accountability.

“Allowing unconstitutional bodies to operate sets a dangerous precedent. We must protect the integrity of our institutions and uphold the rule of law at all costs,” he warned.

Conclusion

The Suame MP’s remarks reflect growing tensions between the current government and opposition members over how alleged wrongdoing by former officials is being addressed. His call for non-cooperation signals a potential standoff that could further complicate efforts to address concerns about governance and corruption in Ghana.
