The Director of Legal Affairs of the ruling National Democratic Congress, NDC, Godwin Edudzi Tameklo, has reacted to the appointment of Mrs Patience Baffoe-Bonnie as the new Director-General of the Ghana Prisons Service.
In a Facebook post, the Acting CEO of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) accused former President Akufo-Addo of purnishing Mrs Baffoe-Bonnie because her husband is Justice Paul Baffoe Bonnie, a Supreme Court judge who was one of the majority judges that ruled against Akufo-Addo in 2012 presidential elections petition.
For 8yrs, former President Nana Addo decided to punish this woman simply because the husband is Justice Paul Baffoe Bonnie, a Justice of the Supreme Court.
She is a very distinguished Prisons Officer but became the target of political victimization because her husband was one of the Supreme Court judges who sat on the 2012 Presidential election petition. And that the husband was among the majority of Judges who ruled in dismissing the petition brought by Nana Addo and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia after the 2012 presidential election – Mr. Tameklo said
The lawyer thus has expressed gratitude to President John Mahama for looking “at her distinguished service for the country” and honoured her accordingly.

This is Mrs Patience Baffoe-Bonnie, the newly appointed Director-General of the Ghana Prisons Service.
I thank President John Dramani Mahama for this appointment.
For 8yrs, former President Nana Addo decided to punish this woman simply because the husband is Justice Paul Baffoe Bonnie, a Justice of the Supreme Court.
She is a very distinguished Prisons Officer but became the target of political victimization because her husband was one of the Supreme Court judges who sat on the 2012 Presidential election petition.
And that the husband was among the majority of Judges who ruled in dismissing the petition brought by Nana Addo and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia after the 2012 presidential election.
She was deliberately targeted.
I am happy that President Mahama looked at her distinguished service for the country.
Like her name, Patience, she waited patiently for today.
