“No one will be allowed to have their appointment terminated on the altar of political gimmicks, people who have gone through the proper procedures as Ghanaians will be protected under the law.”

“I’ll lead a suit at the Anix Court to make sure that I protect the affected persons under the constitution specifically article 14 of the 1992 constitution, no one would be allowed to be disappointed or no one will be allowed to his appointment terminated on the Altar of political gimmicks.”
