Private legal practitioner, Martin Kpebu, has hinted that he is likely to take up a public office role soon, but has firmly ruled out any interest in becoming the next Special Prosecutor.<\/p>\n

According to him, \u201cThat is not the office I have dreamt about, it is clear that some day I will go into public office, it is very clear to me now, but not Special Prosecutor,\u201d he said on JoyNews\u2019 Newsfile<\/em><\/strong> on Saturday, 6th December, when addressing speculation surrounding his ongoing legal dispute with the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP). <\/p>\n

His remark comes amid criticism suggesting he is pushing for the removal of Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng and for him to take over the role.<\/p>\n

Here is a grammatically refined version:<\/p>\n

He dismissed the claims as \u201cparaphrased\u201d, stressing that he cannot be seeking to replace Mr Agyebeng when he is the one leading calls for his removal.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving led the charge in calling for him (Kissi Agyebeng) to go, I should not be the one to replace him,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Kpebu emphasised that while he expects to be appointed to public service in due course, the OSP is not a position he desires.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
