Meet the Strong Man whose Investigation Led to Sacking of 20 Ghanaian Judges



Thanks to the investigative prowess of this journalist, disguised to cover his identity, twenty senior judges and magistrates have been sacked in Ghana after being found guilty of bribery and other forms of corruption. The dismissals followed investigation into allegations of corruption in the judiciary.

In August, the journalist revealed that he had evidence showing judges demanding bribes and even sex to influence judgements in court cases. The shocking revelation however dazed many Ghanaians and threw the judiciary into ‘confusion’.
Announcing the sackings, Ghana's chief justice said she wanted to assure the public that the judicial council, the regulatory body for judges, would take "prompt and resolute" action to "redeem" the image of the judiciary.
