Minority Foreign Spokesperson, Samuel Okudjeto Ablakwa
The Foreign Affairs Spokesman and MP for North Tongue, Samuel Okudjeto Ablakwa, said a future government that would be formed by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) would trigger an extradition process for the Chinese national Aisha Huang.
Ms. Huang, nicknamed "Queen Galamsey", was deported from Ghana in 2018 for participating in an illegal mining activity.
It was after the ruling government, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), decided to end his trial.
Senior Minister Yaw Osafo-Maafo recently justified her deportation at a general meeting of the government in the United States.
But Mr Ablakwa says the NDC would work in the future to extradite it if it came back to power.
Speaking about Ms. Huang's deportation to the News newspaper on Saturday, Mr. Ablakwa said former President John Mahama, who is now running for the NDC presidency, has decided to Extradite Ms. Huang to Ghana to submit her to all the rigors of Ghanaian law.
How can this happen?
To communicate to mark political points on the subject, it is easy to say that Aisha Huang can be extradited to Ghana.
However, diplomatically, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to extradite him.
Indeed, Ghana and China have concluded an extradition treaty.
Impunity
At the same time, columnist Henry Nii Allotey plunged into the debate, claiming that "Aisha Huang operated with impunity under the rule of the NDC government".
According to him, "it's an undiluted fact! She was arrested and deported four months later to the NPP government. "
He said that "her deportation may not have been the best, but at least she spared the Ghanaians from her reign of terror."
Mr. Nii Allotey added that "in order for the same NDC to declare its intention to call the same Aisha Huang to be prosecuted and imprisoned when she could not do so during her tenure, she felt hypocrisy and the double standard. "
He said that "the political clbad should respect the intelligence of Ghanaians".
