The Supreme Court has unanimously ordered businessman, Alfred Agbesi Woyome to refund Ghc51.2million to the state.
Reports we gather is that, the court said Mr Woyome got the money out of an invalid and unconstitutional contract.
According to the court, the contracts upon which he made and received the claim was in contravention to Article 181 (5) of the 1992 Constitution of Ghana, which requires such contracts to be laid before and approved by Parliament.
The court was ruling on a review application filed by a former Attorney General, Mr Martin Amidu on Tuesday.
