Former Member of Parliament for Tema East Constituency Daniel Nii Kwartei Titus-Glover descended heavily on private legal practitioner Martin Kepbu when the latter referred to the President and the Finance Minister as “stealing” from taxpayers.
Speaking on TV3‘s The Keypoints on Saturday, April 29, Mr Kpebu said Databank Financial Services Limited, which once had Minister of Finance Ken Ofori-Atta as one of its Directors, benefited enormously from Ghana’s purchased bonds from the Eurobond market.
He added that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is colluding with Mr Ofori-Atta, his “brother”, to rip Ghana’s public purse.
Mr Kpebu minced no words when he said the two are stealing from Ghanaians.
This is what did not go down well with the former New Patriotic Party (NPP) MP, Mr Titus-Glover, who used invectives against the lawyer.
“Did you see him stealing money?” he put to lawyer Kpebu.
“If you are disappointed in life, go and manage your life.”
The former Deputy Transport Minister continued that Mr Kpebu is a “disappointed lawyer” who cannot manage his life and his family but had the guts to call the President a thief.
But the National Communications Officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi, who was also on the weekend news analysis programme, took on TV3 for allowing Mr Titus-Glover to take the legal practitioner to the cleaners.
He said TV3 has been very unfair to Mr Kpebu because “he has paid his dues”.
He mentioned how Mr Kpebu’s case versus the Republic has become a precedent in the laws of Ghana and that generations unborn will come and read about this precedent.
