Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has asked Minister-designate for the Ministry of Justice and Attorney General, Dominic Ayine, to reassess the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) committee’s operations and ensure that existing state institutions are allowed to perform their mandated roles without interference.
Speaking on the floor of Parliament on Tuesday, January 21, 2025 he labelled the establishment of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) committee as “illegal and unconstitutional.”
He further urged the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) government to avoid repeating the mistakes of the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration.
The MP advised them to remain committed to democratic and constitutional norms.
“Mr. Speaker, that so-called ORAL committee claiming to be going after loot must be cautioned that that committee is unconstitutional and illegal. And I pray that my respected colleague, Dr. Dominic Ayine, after taking office, will review the activities of this illegal, unconstitutional body.
“Bring things to order and allow the state institutions clothed with the mandate to investigate, follow due process, and prosecute if necessary.
“The way this ORAL is going, it will not help the course of our democracy. Today, you are in government; tomorrow you will be in opposition. Do unto others as in all situations you wish them to do unto you. If the NPP side in government made some mistakes in government, you don’t have to continue that path. Pursue justice for all.”
