Mr. Chairman, distinguished invited guests, friends of the media, fellow Togolese, ladies and gentlemen. I welcome you all to this brief, unexpected but special ceremony to draw the curtains down on my assignment as AG.
My heart is heavy but my spirit is free.
It is for the good of our motherland that I turned my back on the gold of the private sector to come help preserve the gold of the public sector. That was my joy, my hope, and dream of using my knowledge and conviction to serve this great country that has been turned into a pauper’s debtor by some few wicked souls.
Mr. Chairman, I don’t want to go into the technicalities relating to my forced leave, date of birth or nationality, because if there’s any truth in these claim, then the oath of integrity and allegiance to the cross I took when I assumed this position are both blasphemous. I am neither a Togolese nor a ’60 born and anybody who attempts to painstakingly prove the authenticity of these allegations is not just unscrupulous, but a demon who has sworn not sleep until the fight against corruption has been frustrated.
In the last fear days, I have concluded that anybody who calls him or herself an anti-corruption crusader must first be made to be in a position of influence where corruption can be outrightly expunged from our political culture. This single act I believe will be the acid test of the resolution to end corruption.
I have called you here this evening to assure you that it is not the end of the fight. Our voices will still pierce the conscience of those who have gone into alliance to destroy this great nation for their parochial gains. As children of God called to be light and salt, we will not relent in our shining.
Very soon, the rains will stop and we will know which building was on a waterway by the scoop of water from the rooms.
It may seem like evil of triumphing but don’t despair yet; darkness can never comprehend light.
I wish you all, especially my fellow crusaders against corruption. May God bless our homeland Ghana and make our nation great and strong.
