Suspension of Chief Justice is a charade to remove her from office – Dame to Supreme Court 

Godfred Yeboah Dame, former Attorney General and Minister for Justice, has criticized the suspension process of Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Torkornoo. He called it a “charade” aimed at removing her from office.

Mr. Dame expressed his views in open court on Tuesday, May 6. He argued for an injunction to stop the suspension process.

He claimed that the actions taken so far lack legal merit. He believes they are politically motivated.

“All these processes to suspend the Chief Justice are nothing but a charade,” he stated emphatically.

Dame urged the court to intervene. He described the situation as an abuse of constitutional procedures for improper ends.
