Later, the prosecution requested Kolubah to produce his medical records from the hospital he had attended in Ghana. And, it would also enable the government to conduct an investigation as to whether or not Kolubah actually received medical treatment. “What is before this court is the various offenses that are contained in the indictment and for which Rep. Kolubah is present for the state to prove,” Judge Willie reminded the government lawyers. Furthermore, Willie said he cannot deny or admit that Kolubah during his alleged press conference had series of discussion with African leaders about the December 30 protest. “Kolubah has his constitutional right to talk with anyone as he wishes and not restricted from talking with anyone that includes African leaders during his medical trip to Ghana,” the defense team argued.
