Lawyer and Manhyia South MP Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah has welcomed the Majority Chief Whip’s condemnation of the Economic and Organised Crime Office’s (EOCO) attempt to arrest him.
Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, a lawyer and Manhyia South MP, expressed satisfaction with Majority Chief Whip Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor's criticism of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) for attempting to arrest him. Dafeamekpor described the attempted arrest of a sitting MP as "absolutely unacceptable," citing constitutional procedures under Article 117.
Baffour Awuah acknowledged that the public consensus was that EOCO's actions were unlawful and he would not be deterred from representing his client. He emphasized his commitment to his client, a poor woman from a village in Techiman Hansua with three children. Despite EOCO declaring him wanted, Baffour Awuah stated his intention to appear in court and refused to be intimidated.
He also rejected accusations that those who helped him avoid abduction had acted unlawfully, arguing that assisting him was a legitimate act.
