ICC throws out Woyome’s petition

The International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has thrown out Mr Alfred Woyome’s petition concerning the GHS51 million judgment debt.

Mr Woyome was also slapped with a $5000 administrative charge.

The embattled businessman petitioned the ICC over the GH51.2 million judgment debt wrongfully paid to him by the past National Democratic Congress (NDC) government which the Supreme Court has ordered him to refund to the state.
