Ken Ofori-Atta's international lawyer speaks on his extradition sagaAccording to him, this reveals a glaring contradiction. He argued that the claim of political motivation collapses under basic scrutiny, noting that the case is not being pursued by a hostile opposition or a new administration seeking retribution. Political prosecutions isolate political opponents; they do not bundle politicians and private actors into the same factual matrix of alleged wrongdoing,” he argued. He further noted that the structure of the case, focused on contracts, procurement systems, and revenue flows, makes the persecution claim appear less analytical and more performative. Political motivation is not proven by press releases and foreign interviews; it is tested through lawful engagement,” he concluded.
