The presidential staffer quoted the words that ostensibly led to Barker-Vormawor’s ‘sacking’ before submitting: “Attacking and insulting a whole Magistrate in her own court?”“We have not asked for bail. This process is a sham,” Barker-Vormawor is quoted to have said before the Magistrate ordered him out. The court subsequently remanded him for another two weeks with the next appearance slated for March 15. He was subsequently arraigned before a court on Monday, February 14, 2022, on charges of treason felony. The Ashaiman District Court refused to grant him bail citing jurisdiction and asked his lawyers to approach the High Court for bail.
