Major Mahama’s death: Minority will not accept shoddy prosecution

Major Mahama was lynched by residents of Denkyira-Obuasi in the Central region on Monday, May 29, and he will be laid to rest this Friday, June 9, 2017.

Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu has warned that Minority MPs will not accept any shoddy prosecution of perpetrators of the heinous lynching of Major Maxwell Adam Mahama.

“What we would not accept is to hear from either from the Police service or the Ghana Armed Forces or the Attorney General that they are in want of evidence. That will not be countenanced or accepted by us,” he said.
