Private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has announced that he is preparing what he describes as the “mother of all petitions” to trigger the removal of Kissi Agyebeng from office as Special Prosecutor.
Speaking on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show on Thursday, December 4, Mr Kpebu disclosed that he has shifted from providing information informally to the OSP to formally assembling a comprehensive petition backed by fresh details he continues to receive from members of the public.
According to him, the volume of information being shared with him is expanding daily, strengthening the document he intends to submit to the President in line with constitutional procedures.
“The information I was going to give to the OSP, I am putting it into a petition,” he said. “And the reason I haven’t presented a petition is that as this conversation snowballs, people are calling me and giving me more details which I am putting inside — and the petition is growing bigger and bigger.”
Mr Kpebu declared that the final document would be unprecedented in scale:
“And we will present it, and it will be the mother of petitions for the removal of Kissi Agyebeng as Special Prosecutor.”
His comments come a day after his arrest at the Office of the Special Prosecutor for allegedly obstructing officers, an incident he has since described as unlawful and politically reckless.
The OSP has defended the arrest as a lawful response to obstructive conduct, but the confrontation has further deepened tensions between Mr Kpebu and the Special Prosecutor.
