5 d. ago Accountability Demands It: President Mahama Must Release the Committee’s Report on the Chief Justice’s Removal Proceedings

Yesterday, Ghana witnessed a significant constitutional precedent: President John Dramani Mahama, in accordance with Article 146(9) of the Constitution, removed Her Ladyship Justice Gertrude Araba Sackey Torkornoo from office as Chief Justice and Justice of the Supreme Court. This marked the abrupt end of a long and distinguished judicial career. Though the President’s action was constitutionally mandated: once the committee established under Article 146(6) recommends removal, the President has no discretion, the political and legal ramifications have been immediate. Public discourse has been rife with mixed reactions, with many questioning the fairness of the process and the independence of the Judiciary in the current constitutional climate.
