General News of Thursday, 1 August 2019Source: 3news.comA-G rejects Woyome’s request to renegotiate outstanding judgement debtBusinessman, Alfred WoyomeAttorney-General (A-G) Gloria Akuffo has declined a request by businessman Alfred Agbesi Woyome, to renegotiate the arrears of the 51.2 million-cedi judgement debt illegally paid him by the government 10 years ago. But the A-G in her response to the said note and letters, shot down the idea by the businessman, citing “obvious reasons” as basis. “In the note and letters you requested for a meeting with the Attorney-General’s team to negotiate the outstanding judgement debt,” a July 22 letter addressed to Woyome and signed by deputy A-G Godfred Yeboah Dame recalled. He, however, refunded GH¢4 million in November 2016 and promised to pay the outstanding balance in quarterly installments of GH¢5 million, commencing April 1, 2017. That did not materialise after the businessman had initiated a litany of legal cases at the Supreme Court to support his case, which were all dismissed.
