The Member of Parliament for Asawase and Minority Chief Whip, Mr Mohammed Mubarak Muntaka has retracted and apologised for his corruption allegation made against a Supreme Court Judge.
Although he did not mention the name of the supposed Judge, the allegation had become a dent on the image of the entire Supreme Court.
According to him, the allegation he made in an interview on January 10, 2021 was based on a report from his trusted colleague which was that she had been approached by a justice of the Supreme Court seeking to entice her to vote for a particular candidate during the contest for speakership of Parliament.
” I therefore wish to respectfully retract same and apologise for the harm done to the image and reputation of my Lord Justices of the Supreme Court and the Judiciary as a whole,” he said.
Below is the apology statement:
