Former Deputy Attorney-General Alfred Tuah-Yeboah says the extradition of ex-MASLOC chief Sedinam Tamakloe-Attionu from the United States demonstrates that absconding will not shield accused persons from prosecution, and signals Ghana's commitment to pursuing corruption cases across borders where extradition arrangements exist.
Joy Online argues that Ghana's laws and courts systematically allow political officials accused of corruption to delay justice through lawyers, medical excuses and adjournments, while ordinary citizens face swift arrest; the analysis contrasts the treatment of a young person stealing a phone with public officials losing millions of cedis, saying the system is designed to enable rather than deter corruption among the powerful.
