The highest court of the land, the Supreme Court of Ghana has ordered ace investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas to appear before the court without his usual mask to face former GFA boss Kwesi Nyantakyi.
Anas, who has been reluctant to appear in court is now forced to be without his mask and now has to be in flesh to testify in court.
This comes after the Supreme Court dismissed an earlier ruling by a lower court giving permission to Anas to testify on camera.
The journalist, whose investigation led to Nyantakyi’s resignation from several football posts, claimed his life would be in danger if he testifies in court.
The High Court 2, Criminal Division granted permission to Anas Aremeyaw Anas to testify on camera in the case against Kwesi Nyantakyi.
But on appeal by Nyantakyi’s lawyers, the Supreme Court ruled in favour of the former football chief and asked Anas to appear in open court to testify against Nyantakyi.
Nyantakyi is fighting his case against the controversial journalist in a bid to clear his name.
The former Ghana FA boss is serving a global ban following the “NUMBER 12” expose.
Nyantakyi and other football officials from around the continent were secretly filmed by undercover reporters receiving cash gifts as part of a documentary by controversial Ghanaian investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
Anas is set to premiere another expose titled “GALAMSEY ECONOMY” on November 14 and 15, 2022 at the Accra International Conference Center.
