Special Prosecutor earns praise online
Social media has erupted with accolades and commendation for the Special Prosecutor. Many say Kissi Agyebeng has demonstrated his resolve to fight corruption and lawlessness.
US-based private legal practitioner, Prof Stephen Kwaku Asare, known popularly as Kwaku Azar, has praised the Special Prosecutor for his resolve to crack the whip.
"This SP is not joking oh. I read somewhere that he is going after Efo Dela Coffie on forgery and corruption-related offenses.
"In the twinkle of an eye, he has wrestled the PPA Czar, the Juaben MCE nominee, the Estate of Sir John (may he Rest In Peace), and now Efo Dela.
"I know Ghanafuo have become justifiably pessimistic. But this SP means business," he posted on Facebook.
Popular for his anti-Mahama campaign
Very active on social media, Dela Coffie remains one of NDC’s outspoken anti-John Mahama campaigners. He has said in the past that the former president has nothing better to offer the party again.
He believes Mr Mahama led the party into opposition twice and so must not lead the party again.
“Isn’t it as obvious to these guys as it is to me that Mahama has failed to prove himself as a leader, and that he’s out of the question and reckoning for the presidency?
“The man has been President, and he led the NDC from government into opposition. Does he have any redeeming qualities to offer anything new? No, I cannot think of anything. Which is why it’s of no use sidetracking some of the best brains in the NDC all in an attempt to impose Mahama on the party,” Dela Coffie said last year.

A message posted on the official Facebook page of the former president urged the public to ignore the advertisement that fraudulently uses his last name and photo.
“The public is hereby informed to ignore a message/ advertisement circulating with the image of former President John Dramani Mahama and announcing the distribution of a Grant to applicants: - MAHAMA 2,000 Ghc GRANTS FOR GHANAIANS. This is false and intended to defraud unsuspecting Ghanaians. Please ignore any such message, and do not fall victim to fraudsters,” the full post read.
