In his response to Mr. Asamoah, the Special Prosecutor stated that he had been tempted to "give tacit instructions" to the way he ran his office.
"Hon. Yaw Buaben Asamoa acceded to my explanation and public information throughout the interview to go to the defense of the Criminal Investigations Department, as it was known to be. 39, a department of deaf-mutes. L & # 39; Hon. Yaw Buaben Asamoa did so by pretending to lead me ignorantly on how to perform the duties of my office.
Mr. Amidu added that the Ghanaians saw beyond the remarks of Mr. Asamoa, which constituted "a subtle way to defend the CID and a colleague of the party who was the subject of the alleged exemption".
"Why defend a public institution while she is able to defend herself except to score political points?"
