President John Mahama has reiterated his firm commitment to upholding constitutional procedures in the ongoing investigation into the suspended Chief Justice, Gertrude Torkornoo.

Speaking at a recent meeting with the Council of State, the President emphasized that no decision regarding the Chief Justice will be made until the committee probing the allegations of misconduct submits its final report.

Addressing the Council of State, President Mahama acknowledged the critical advisory role the council has played in government affairs, particularly in expediting appointments to various governing boards and statutory institutions.

He expressed gratitude for their swift approvals, which he said have enabled his administration to advance its “reset agenda” more rapidly than previous governments.

“Undertaking your work in earnest, as the chairman of the council has stated, we have referred several matters to the council for advice, mostly concerning appointments to governing boards and statutory institutions,” the President said.

“I want to thank you for the approvals you have given us and for expediting the work of government. This has helped us more speedily than any government in the past to have persons in place to begin to prosecute the reset agenda that we have,” he added.

On the sensitive issue of the Chief Justice’s suspension, President Mahama noted that the Council of State was actively involved in part of the process.

He clarified that while the council has fulfilled its advisory function, the responsibility now rests with the investigative committee tasked with uncovering the facts.

“We’ve had difficulties regarding the suspension of the Chief Justice, and of course, the Council of State was involved in a part of that process. We’ve done our part, and the rest is left with the committee that was set up to come out with whatever its findings are. Based on that, whatever the consequential issues are will be dealt with,” the President stated.

The committee was established to thoroughly investigate the allegations of misconduct against Chief Justice Torkornoo, ensuring transparency and adherence to Ghana’s constitutional framework. President Mahama’s remarks underscore the administration’s dedication to due process and the rule of law amid this high-profile judicial controversy.

However, the Chief Justice, Her Ladyship Justice Gertrude Torkornoo, has filed a case at the ECOWAS Community Court in Abuja, Nigeria, against the Republic.

According to Dr. Justice Srem Sai, Deputy Attorney General, the case, filed on July 4, repeats allegations of human rights violations similar to those currently pending before Ghana’s Supreme Court and High Court regarding her ongoing removal processes.
