Martin Kpebu, a private legal practitioner, has revealed that fifteen petitions have been seeking the removal of Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng.
According to Martin Kpebu, the 15 separate petitions highly suggest the deepening public dissatisfaction.
Martin Kpebu, in an interview, revealed, “As we speak now, there are 15 petitions to remove Kissi Agyebeng. When was the last time you heard of other persons subject to Article 146 proceedings ever having 15 petitions filed against them? That tells you that there is something wrong”.
Also, Lawyer Martin Kpebu has threatened to initiate the removal of the Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng if he fails to immediately freeze assets related to the terminated SML contract.
Speaking on TV3’s Key Point, Lawyer Kpebu stated, If the OSP doesn’t take immediate steps to freeze Ken Ofori-Atta’s assets, I will present a petition for his removal from office.
Lawyer Kpebu highlighted that Ken Ofori-Atta may be signing contracts to sell off his assets, including Databank, since he has no intention of returning to Ghana.
According to Lawyer Kpebu, the OSP had the SML case for more than a year, but sat on its hands doing nothing.
He explained, “The key thing we have to watch is that right now, we’ve not been able to freeze Mr Ofori-Atta’s assets, as we are talking about right now, it’s even possible that he is signing agreements to sell their shares in Data Bank, his share in Enterprise Insurance.
There are many assets he has. That is where our target should be. So we need this case to enter court quickly. And just before we enter, the law allows OSP to freeze their assets and then, after about two weeks, go back into court and get a longer duration for freezing their asset”.
He added, “So this is very key, very, very key. That’s why I’ve been saying that Kissi Agyebeng has been very incompetent in this Ofori Atta case. You know the man has many man-assets in Ghana. Manasseh did this work for one year, from December 2022 to December 2023.
When Manasseh presented a petition to the OSP, Manasseh and then Aziamu Mensah and Adobea, the other lady, three journalists. So this petition against Ofori-Atta and co was presented in December 2023. By December 2024, OSP had had these petitions for one year. One year, an OSP sat on his hands, pussyfooting Kukwasa. So much so that now we believe this is criminal negligence”.
Meanwhile, Apostle Abraham Larbi Lincoln, the Lead Convener of a Ghanaian group demanding the removal of Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng, will stage a protest on Tuesday, November 25, 2025.
According to the Group, their protest is themed “Agro Ne Fom” which aims to demand the removal of Kissi Agyebeng over his failure to fulfil his mandate.
Apostle Abraham Larbi Lincoln speaking stated, “We will be in our reds, and we will be there to present our case. If he doesn’t listen, then we know the kind of person he is.
We are marching straight to the Jubilee House, and we will petition the President,” he said.
He further noted that they do not hate Kissi Agyebeng but want the office reformed or dissolved entirely, with all staff removed.
Their protest is expected to end with a formal petition to President Mahama at the Jubilee House.
