Here is another case of someone who was wrongfully dismissed from his workplace by the government.
Sallah v Attorney General (1970), a significant constitutional law case from Ghana.
Case Summary: Sallah v. Attorney General (1970) Background: The case involved Sallah, a public officer who was wrongfully dismissed from his position following a change in government. The Ghanaian government, under the National Liberation Council (NLC) (which took power after the 1966 coup that overthrew Kwame Nkrumah), removed certain public officials, including Sallah. Sallah challenged his dismissal, arguing that it was unconstitutional and that he was entitled to his position.

Legal Issues:
Legality of Dismissal:
Was Sallah’s removal lawful under Ghanaian law? Could the government remove public officials without due process?

State Responsibility:
Could the Attorney General, representing the government, justify the dismissal?
Court Ruling: The Supreme Court of Ghana ruled in favor of Sallah. It held that his dismissal was unconstitutional and invalid. The government could not remove public officials arbitrarily without following due process.
Significance: Established judicial independence in Ghana. Protected civil servants from arbitrary dismissal after political changes. Strengthened constitutional law and rule of law in Ghana.
This case is often cited in discussions about executive power, public service rights, and constitutional governance.
Therefore if you have any problems concerning your work, I just want you to know that the law can fix it for you. Just make sure that your case is good.
