Senyo Hosi from the One Ghana Movement warned lawmakers not to kill off the Special Prosecutor's office, saying Ghanaians would absolutely reject that move. The whole thing kicked off after Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga wanted to scrap the OSP and hand everything to the Attorney General, plus lawyer Martin Kpebu filed to get current Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng removed.
Hosi basically said people need to stop confusing whether the current guy is doing well with whether the actual office itself matters. He pushed back hard on scrapping it without having something better ready, arguing the core mission of independent accountability can't just disappear because some politician finds it inconvenient. Any legal problems should get fixed through proper reforms instead of nuking the whole institution.
Parliament got told straight up that citizens are demanding this accountability setup, and riding on Kpebu's complaints to dismantle the policy behind the OSP won't fly with regular people.
