Some anti-corruption activists are telling lawmakers to chill out after a bunch of MPs started pushing to kill off the Special Prosecutor's Office and hand everything back to the Attorney General. Edem Senanu from the Citizens Movement Against Corruption said scrapping the agency would be straight-up dumb since the thing is still getting built up and could actually help fight graft if people would just let it work.
The guy pointed out that some of the same politicians demanding the office get axed were the ones who voted to create it in the first place, which is pretty wild. He wants reforms to make the OSP stronger instead of trashing the whole setup.
This is all going down while three separate groups have filed complaints trying to boot the current Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, claiming he is wrecking transparency and accountability by staying in the job.
