Jail term given to Akuapem Poloo very harsh – Sammy Gyamfi claims

Ghanaian lawyer and politician, Sammy Gyamfi has reacted to the jail term given to actress Akuapem Poloo.

Sammy Gyamfi who doubles as the current National Communications Officer for the National Democratic COngress (NDC) in a tweet sighted by Gossips24.com said the 90 days jail term given to the actress is harsh.

According to him, the mother of one pleaded guilty and showed remorse, hence non-custodial sentence would have been appropriate.

He then pleaded with President Akufo-Addo to pardon her.

He tweeted; The sentence given to @IamAkuapemPoloo is very harsh and high-handed. Given the fact that she is a first offender, pleaded guilty and showed remorse, non-custodial sentence would have been appropriate. Sad! I pray @NAkufoAddo remits her sentence or pardons her. #FreeAkuapemPoloo
