A Former Deputy General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen has said that it’s embarrassing for the high court to issue an arrest warrant for Naa Bohagu Mahami Abdulai Sheriga, the Nayiri of the Mamprugu Traditional Area.
According to Lawyer Nana Obiri Boahen, the arrest warrant has legal and political implications.
The reason for the chief’s arrest was unclear, but it was thought to be related to the alleged unlawful and condemned enskinment of a new chief for Bawku on February 15 done at the palace of the Mamprugu overlord.
Speaking on ‘The State Of Ghana’ political show on Wontumi TV, he said: “I feel very much worried and bittered for the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia”.
He said Dr Bawumia is an indigene of Mamprusi and he is a Prince and that if anything the court should have cast an eye on the Vice President.
