The inside story of how Anas took on Ghana’s corrupt judiciary
In early September this year, after behind-the-scenes negotiations with the President of Ghana and the country’s Attorney General, Anas released his findings to the people of Ghana, unleashing a constitutional and political crisis of a kind not seen since in the country for decades. As Kofi Annan, former UN secretary-general and one of Ghana’s most famous sons, says in the film, “Sometimes it takes a spark, just a spark, and I think Anas has provided that spark for the whole edifice to blow up.”
