Embattled Lawyer Francis-Xavier Sosu honoured with humanitarian award

Celebrated human rights and public interest lawyer, Francis-Xavier Sosu, has been presented with a humanitarian award by the Marshal UK & The Vine Complex Ghana on Saturday, July 15, 2017, in Accra.

The special award recognises the need to give back to society and is conferred on groups and individuals making a positive impact in Ghana and abroad.

Although the renowned human rights Lawyer is currently in court fighting a three-year ban by the General Legal Council for touting and breaching regulations on legal fees, he has been a strong force in the fight for justice for vulnerable Ghanaians – sometimes taking up cases free of charge for people who cannot afford legal fees.
