Alfred Woyome who felt his rights was been violated filed a case against the state at the African Court.

However, the African Court dismissed the case on grounds that Woyome’s right to equality before the law and equal protection has not been violated in any way.

“Criminal talking about human rights. Go and pay the ¢20 million debt to the State. We can’t trust Woyome.

The state should reject any payment plan proposed by him. The state must go ahead with the execution process and retrieve the taxpayer’s money. Woyome’s end has come”, Maurice Ampaw stated.
