“Thank God, it was Nkrumah who led us to independence” – ManassehIn other news, John Dramani Mahama’s lead attorney in the ongoing election petition trial, Tsatsu Tsikata, said former President Kufuor was determined to imprison him during his administration.
Tsikata, who was the former executive director of the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC), was sentenced by the Accra High Fast Track Court in June 2008 to five years in prison for deliberately causing financial losses to the state.
Speaking on the KSM program on Pan African TV, Tsikata said that he became a target of the Kufuor administration because of his closeness to the late former President Jerry John Rawlings.
He said the Kufuor administration was determined to erase Rawlings’ legacies in the oil and gas industry.
“I could see in early 2001 the determination, by hook or by crook, to find something against me. That’s what led to all these interesting cases against me, ”he said.
Ridiculous, unfortunate attitude of the Audit Service Board towards Domelevo – CDDTsikata’s revelations have generated massive reactions on social media and YEN.com.gh compiled some.

Almost 2 hours of fireworks. What an excellent delivery from LAW himself. God bless Uncle Tsatsu Tsikata, Mr. KSM and Pan African TV for this great interview.
What a refreshing Bible quote.
“They may have done it for the bad, but the Lord did it for the better”

Senior attorney Tsatsu Tsikata worked hard to get GNPC where it is today. Your one-time contribution to GNPC has generated huge revenue for this country.
Today, one of your main detractors is running the affairs of this nation. Find the place lucrative enough to pack with friends.

Tsatsu Tsikata is everything and more man. I love how he doesn’t take credit for himself, but he appreciates everyone who crossed his path and impacted his life. He is also humble and above that he knows and loves God ei. You have all my respect!

Watching Tsatsu Tsikata talk about her life trajectory is inspiring.
So many suitable snippets in that conversation.
One that caught my eye is ‘regardless of your capabilities, you need someone to create a framework for your prosperity’.

Nah! We need to celebrate Tsatsu Tsikata Esq. The man has been through all that. Not only is he knowledgeable about the law, but he’s also good with the Bible. I love your verse Psalm 63 Red heart
