President J.E.A. Mills has contradicted the views of the ruling party's Chairman Dr Kwabena Adjei who said the judiciary needed to be purged.He said the judiciary was an independent institution and his government had no intention of tampering with it.The president was speaking on his arrival at the Kotoka International Airport Monday morning, to news men and high powered delegation including the vice president, John Dramani Mahama.President Mills' party Chairman last week said the judiciary needed to be cleansed of its perceived corruption and political bias.His comments followed a consistent loss of high profile cases at the courts by the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice.An Aide to the president, Nii Lantey Vanderpuije told journalists the president fully backed his chairman but the president says he has no intention of purging the institution of any perceived political bias.He debunked claims he went to the United States to seek medical treatment.He has been out for close to a week in what government spokespersons say is part of a short leave.Some critics say he is out to seek medical treatment.But the president told journalists that he has absolute faith in the doctors in Ghana and did not seek medical treatment in the US."It is a pity that whenever I am out of public view, it is about my health. Let's concentrate on what is worthy."Joy FM's correspondent Seth Kwame Boateng who was present at airport said the president took time to respond to some pertinent issues that came up in his absence.He also commented on the Kosmos-Exxonmobil controversy which took centre stage in his absence.President Mills is heading to the Castle but it is not clear if he will resume work today.Story: Myjoyonline.com/Ghana
