Dr. Nsiah Asare instituted the action after he was asked to proceed on leave upon a change of government in 2009. Prof. Ohene-Adjei was then asked to take over.

Apart from that, all his entitlements and salary were also withdrawn despite a signed contract which was due to expire in October 2010.

It therefore ordered the Defendants to pay all entitlements due to the Plaintiff as at 31st January, 2012 with interest.
