In a case of what appears to be a battle of integrity, two of Ghana\u2019s foremost anti-corruption campaigners are at each other\u2019s throat over the details of the much publicized investigative piece that exposed alleged corruption in the judiciary.<\/p>\n

The man, who calls himself citizen vigilante, a former Attorney-General, Martin Amidu, has evoked a new debate on the integrity of the work done by Anas Aremeyaw Anas and his TigerEyePI team, by\u00a0suggesting in a statement\u00a0released on Monday, that Anas\u2019 work was state-sponsored.<\/p>\n

His statement also alleged that Anas and the state engaged in selective justice by reporting edited findings on the expos\u00e9, while suppressing investigations into other arms of government, particularly Parliament.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”IncLMedlO4e6k1Ror8HxXkHzB7Zx4Lal”] But Anas in a Facebook post later on Monday, responded in his capacity as the CEO of the private investigative firm, TigerEyePI, describing Mr. Amidu\u2019s claims as \u201cuntrue\u201d<\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Anas\u2019 response followed a similar one by\u00a0his boss, the Managing Editor of the New Crusading Guide Newspaper, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, in which he also denied Mr. Amidu\u2019s claim that the investigation was commissioned by government.<\/p>\n

However, in what looks like a showdown that has just started, Mr. Martin Amidu, has released another statement responding to Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
\nAmong other things, Mr. Amidu criticized Anas for failing to understand some portions of his statement before responding to it.<\/p>\n

Below is Martin Amidu\u2019s response to Anas<\/strong><\/p>\n

RE: TIGER EYE\u2019S RESPONSE TO MARTIN AMIDU; BY MARTIN A. B. K AMIDU<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have just read what is supposed to be a response to my statement on the Ghanaian sense of Justice: Corrupt Judges Removed, Corrupt Attorneys Rewarded, and Corrupt Politicians Protected from some organization calling itself a Tiger Eye. There is a squeal to my today\u2019s statement devoted entirely to an alleged company called Tiger Eye PI on which I wrote a separate statement simultaneously.<\/p>\n

I was not prudent to publish both today but I have informed some of the press houses about its existence and will be published it for the public to understand my views about the so called Tiger Eye PI.<\/p>\n

Thereafter I will answer to the response of Tiger Eye should it still insist. In any case there is a nexus between the events when I was in Government and the investigations commenced after President Mills\u2019 death allegedly in 2013 which has been captured in foot note 16 (particularly the last but one note) of my published statement of today.<\/p>\n

The response regrettable appears to have been written without reading the foot notes to my statement as an intellectually minded person would have done.<\/p>\n

I stand by everything contained in my statement of today on the attempt to suppress political corruption with the commissioned judicial corruption investigations. Further proof is contained in the squeal and Tiger Eye or whatever it calls itself should be patient to read it first and then we can have useful discussions. In the interim I am grateful for the response.<\/p>\n

The principle I am fighting against is the use of paid private Government agents in an Orwellian Big Brother fashion contrary to the Constitution of Ghana.<\/p>\n

Martin A. B. K. Amidu<\/p>\n
