A lawsuit has been filed against President John Dramani Mahama over the appointment of Anthony Kwasi Sarpong as the Acting Commissioner-General of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA).
The legal challenge, initiated by Emmanuella Sarfowaah, questions the transparency and legality of the appointment process. She argues that due process may not have been followed, raising concerns over political interference in key government institutions.
The lawsuit also names the GRA and the Attorney General as defendants, putting the appointment under intense judicial scrutiny.
Legal analysts suggest that if the court rules in Sarfowaah’s favor, it could set a precedent for future executive appointments.
On the other hand, government officials maintain that the appointment was made in full compliance with the law, dismissing the lawsuit as politically motivated.
As the case unfolds, its outcome could have significant implications for Ghana’s governance structure, especially regarding checks and balances in executive decisions.
The legal proceedings are being closely watched by political observers and civil society groups advocating for institutional independence.
