Mr. David Annan, a lawyer for businessman and National Democratic Congress financier, Alfred Agbesi Woyome, says he is confident his client will keep the judgment debt awarded him.<\/p>\n
He is convinced \u201cthat judgment, to all intents and purposes, is fixed in stone\u201d because it is a consent judgment which cannot be negotiated.<\/p>\n
Contrary to expectations that the Attorney General had found renewed energy to pursue a writ it filed seven months ago and defend the public purse in challenging the quantum of money claimed by Alfred Woyome, the A-G failed to do so today.<\/p>\n
The AG paid Woyome GHS42 million in disregard of the grant of its own prayer to pay only GHS17 million pending the final determination of the present suit.<\/p>\n
The money was in respect of claimed abrogation of a contract to refurbish stadia for the CAN 2008.<\/p>\n
The AG is seeking to set aside terms of settlement it had earlier signed saying it made a mistake in calculating the quantum.<\/p>\n
But David Annan, one of the lawyers for Mr. Woyome, thinks the AG is merely seeking to delay his client a second round victory to enable him enjoy the fruits of the judgment without any hindrance.<\/p>\n
