Desperate Akufo – Addo Govt Fakes Interpol Arrest Warrant

Under pressure from all quarters due to their intransigence as well as incompetence, and desperate to hang on to power, President Akufo-Addo and his cabal are resorting to all kinds of ridiculous antics in the hope it will deceive Ghanaians to retain them in power.

Yesterday, they executed one of their ridiculous antics when they designed a fake Interpol arrest warrant for the arrest of Samuel Adams Mahama who they had linked to the Airbus saga in the hope it will smear NDC flagbearer, John Mahama and damage his electoral fortunes.

However, no sooner had the so-called Interpol arrest warrant appear on social media did many discerning people dismiss it as a fake after going to international police organization’s website and conducting a search on Samuel Adams Mahama.

This paper also conducted a search on Interpol’s website and the result was that there was nobody by name Samuel Adams Mahama who is wanted by Interpol. The response of the website about the said name was;
“Number of Red Notices in circulation: 7306. There are no results for your search.

Please select different criteria”.
Every other criteria was used to search for the name Samuel Adams Mahama on the website but it all turned up nothing.

That ended the gimmick from the President and his cabal, leaving them to deal with the pressures from the parents of final years SHS students, customers of menzgold, customers of closed down Savings and Loans companies, importers, teachers, galamseyers, drivers and from Ghanaians in general.

Soon, some of the silly antics behind the fake Interpol arrest warrant begun to filter into the public domain.

It turned out that the laziest Attorney General in Ghana’s history, Martin Amidu, who is currently the Special Prosecutor had, to lend credence to the fake Interpol arrest warrant designed by elements in the Jubilee House gone to a circuit court and secured an arrest warrant for Samuel Adams Mahama which he then took to the offices of Interpol-Ghana in Accra to make it look as if the international police organization had issued it.

Primenews.com, reporting on the issue said a lawyer of the NDC, Edudzi Tamakloe, reacting to the fake Interpol arrest warrant said in an interview that the government is seeking to divert attention from important issues in the country with an arrest warrant issued for Samuel Adam Mahama.

According to him, Martin Amidu is also trying to remain relevant with an arrest warrant for Samuel Adam Mahama for his alleged role in Airbus bribery scandal after he has been rendered worthless.
Edudzi Tamakloe said the arrest warrant is just a gimmick by the government.

“At a glance one will not that this is nothing but a typical government Public Relation gimmick in a sense that when this Airbus issue came up with the publication of deferred prosecution agreement and the approved judgement government of Ghana being excited with the sensational details through the Special Prosecutor and you will recall the President asking the SP to proceed and investigate the matter. Subsequently, our Daily Graphic on the front page has Martin Amidu writing and inviting some individuals.”

He explained that the said notice of arrest and the red flag will not be found on the website of Interpol.

But rather it was the Special Prosecutor who went to the Circuit Court to secure the warrant which he described as dubious and presented it to the office of Interpol in Ghana.

“What is its significance? it is that… purported to be the arrest warrant from Interpol when you visit the site of the Interpol and look for the name Samuel Mahama you will notice that it is not on the website.

This appears to be looking at the details Martin Amidu going before the Circuit court ex parte motion then a Circuit court judge giving a warrant for arrest, it is this warrant of arrest by the court that has been taken to the Interpol office in Ghana and given this dubious publicity as though it is something that we should be celebrating.”

“If you look at the details the fallacious nature of the detail beyond that you will notice that this is much ado about nothing, Mr Martin Amidu wrote to the…

Fraud office of the UK it has been more than four months now the Serious Fraud Office of the UK had basically ignored him now to prove his usefulness he has decided to go to the Circuit court in Ghana in May to now procure this warrant of arrest, you will see that this is an SP who is trying very hard to remain relevant in the midst of the confusion that we have seen and that is why I want to treat this particular arrest warrant with the contempt that it deserves.”

Edudzi Tamakloe further stated that the UK would have been the first to arrest Samuel Adam Mahama because that was where the alleged bribery occurred and not Martin Amidu.
