Ghana's Chief Justice, Sophia Akuffo recently declared, amidst applause, that as long as she has something to do with it, she will not allow the “mass production” of lawyers in the country.

She further added that “any attempt to allow the production of lawyers without efficient control, checks and balances will be rejected irrespective of who is advocating it.”
