Deputy AG Dr. Justice Srem Sai Defends New Prosecutorial Approach Under Dr. Ayine
Accra, June 14, 2025 — Deputy Attorney-General Dr. Justice Srem Sai has firmly defended the legal philosophy and prosecutorial approach being implemented under the leadership of Attorney-General Dr. Dominic Ayine, stating that political and public pressure will not influence their pursuit of justice.
Speaking on JoyNews’ PM Express, Dr. Srem Sai emphasized that Dr. Ayine remains guided strictly by the rule of law, not public opinion or political convenience.
“He will not trade anything for the position of the law,” Dr. Srem Sai said. “He will not take a case to court unless he has sufficient evidence. He will not persecute anybody.”
Dr. Srem Sai, a respected academic and legal practitioner, acknowledged the high expectations that came with his appointment but expressed confidence in Dr. Ayine’s leadership, calling him a man of legal discipline and integrity.
“I felt the weight of expectation of Ghanaians upon my appointment,” he said. “But one thing that made me happy was my boss. I have known him since law school—he taught me constitutional law, administrative law, and natural resource law. He is very diligent.”
According to Dr. Srem Sai, Dr. Ayine’s strict adherence to evidence-based prosecution offers a solid foundation for justice delivery.
“He does not expect a conviction in every case, but he believes in building a strong legal argument. That gives me confidence,” he noted.
He acknowledged that the work has not been easy, but said the discipline and clarity of purpose within the Attorney-General’s Department made the challenge worthwhile.
The remarks come at a time when the Justice Ministry is under public scrutiny following major revelations, including the over GH₵548 million scandal uncovered at the National Service Authority (NSA) and renewed calls for a shift from politically motivated prosecutions to evidence-led accountability.
