GHANA POLICE SERVICE AND ONE OTHER SUED FOR GHC20MILLIONA few weeks ago I came to announce here that after 17 long months of Police arrest, and prosecution, the Winneba Magistrate court has ruled in favor of my innocence, and I have been exonerated. I also promised to use every legitimate means to comprehensively clear my name. Today I am here again to announce to you that I have sued the Ghana Police Service, and the complainant in the said case, for GHC20million in general damages, for malicious and wrongful prosecution. Hopefully this might be a test case, to serve as lessons for anyone who might allow him/herself to be used to damage the reputation of innocent people. This is the second in the series of suits I intend to file, the first being the appeal I have filed to quash what I believe to be a wrongful and incongruent consequential orders following the court’s ruling. I am from a very humble village background, but I have built a reputation for myself, and I ought not allow anyone to destroy what I have built out of nothing. I was born in Sankor, a then small village in Winneba in the Central Region of Ghana. I was the last born of 12 children of my mother, and the only educated person amongst them. I worked on the Lake Volta as a child fisherman from age 6 until age 13. From this humble background, I rose to become a global social justice advocate, and I have worked tirelessly in Ghana and globally defending human rights.….
