Godfred Yeboah Dame, former Attorney General and Minister for Justice, has sharply criticised the ongoing process to suspend Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Torkornoo, labelling it a “charade” orchestrated to oust her from office.
Mr Dame made the submission in open court on Tuesday, 6 May, while arguing in favour of an injunction to halt the suspension process.
He contended that the steps taken thus far lack genuine legal merit and appear politically motivated.
“All these processes to suspend the Chief Justice are nothing but a charade to remove the CJ from office,” Dame stated emphatically.
He urged the court to intervene and prevent what he described as an abuse of constitutional procedures for improper ends.
