The Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central, Mr Kennedy Ohene Agyapong has dragged undercover journalist and lawyer, Anas Aremeyaw Anas to the General Legal Council (GLC).
Mr Agyapong is complaining that Anas misconducted himself professionally as a lawyer in a manner that bordered on “moral turpitude”.
In a complaint letter dated July 5, 2018, addressed to the Chairperson of the Disciplinary Committee of the General Legal Council, a copy of which has been sighted by Newstube24, Mr Agyapong is asking that disciplinary action should be taken against Anas as a lawyer.
The vociferous MP has been on a campaign against Anas insisting that his modus operandi of entrapping people should not be countenanced by Ghanaians.
Anas on his part has dragged Mr Agyapong, to court for defaming him and asking the High Court to award aggravated damages to the tune of GH¢25 million arising from defamatory materials published by the MP.
The MP has, in the past weeks, been publishing materials in his bid to discredit the investigative journalist, who has released a piece on the rot in Ghana football.
Displeased with the MP’s actions, Anas has, through his lawyer, Mr Kissi Agyebeng, sued Mr Agyapong for the award of general damages for defamation in the defendant’s publications.
Subsequently, Mr. Agyapong has entered a Conditional Appearance in the defamation suit filed against him by Anas and gone ahead to indicate that GH¢25 million was no money to him and that if lose the court case, he will pay Anas.
Mr Agyapong has appointed Eric. O Darko of Darko Law Firm as his solicitor and the conditional appearance was filed on Tuesday, July 3, 2018.
