The Supreme Court has adjourned the hearing of an injunction application challenging the procedure initiated by President John Dramani Mahama that could lead to the potential removal of Chief Justice, Gertrude Torkornoo from office.
The court’s decision to push the hearing to May 6 follows an application filed by legal representatives seeking to block the ongoing process.
Member of Parliament for Tafo in the Ashanti region, Vincent Ekow Assafuah on March 27, 2025, sued the Attorney General over what he describes as constitutional breaches committed by the president when he referred three separate petitions asking for the removal of the Chief Justice from office to the Council of State without notifying the Chief Justice.
Wednesday's session saw a number of high-profile legal figures present at the court, including the Attorney General Dr. Dominic Ayine and former Attorney General Godfred Yeboah Dame.
