Accra: Private legal practitioner Maurice Ampaw has revealed that businessman Nii Armah Quaye allegedly sought a meeting with him during a period of public controversy surrounding his divorce proceedings. Ampaw stated that intermediaries approached him on behalf of Nii Armah, but he declined the invitation.

According to Ghana Web, Maurice Ampaw explained on GhanaWeb's Lowdown show that he avoids private engagements with powerful individuals when he is publicly commenting on issues involving them. He emphasized the importance of maintaining his independence as a commentator by avoiding situations that could create perceptions of bias or compromise.

Ampaw further elaborated, "I was told he wanted to see me, but I refused. Once you go and sit with such people, there is the possibility that your position on the matter may change." This stance reflects his commitment to impartiality and the integrity of his public commentary.

Ampaw also alleged that a message from Nii Armah Quaye claimed, "I have bought everybody," highlighting the contentious nature of the divorce case. Ampaw's decision to decline the meeting underscores his dedication to preserving his professional ethics and independence in the face of potential pressure.
