Old Tafo MP takes on Mahama over Chief Justice removal process

In a recent political development, former Member of Parliament for Old Tafo, Dr. Anthony Akoto Osei, has criticized President John Mahama regarding his stance on the removal process of Chief Justice Kwasi Anin-Yeboah. Dr. Osei contends that Mahama's comments are misleading and politically motivated, aimed at undermining the integrity of the judiciary. He emphasizes that any attempt to remove a Chief Justice should be based on substantial evidence rather than mere political rhetoric.

Dr. Osei further argues that Mahama's approach could set a dangerous precedent for future governance and judicial independence in Ghana. He calls for a more respectful discourse surrounding the judiciary and urges politicians to refrain from using judicial matters as tools for political gain. The former MP believes that maintaining the rule of law is crucial for democracy and encourages all stakeholders to prioritize the integrity of legal institutions over partisan interests.
