The Tsie We/Kle Musum Quarter of Teshie has distanced itself from a petition regarding Justice Gabriel Scott Pwamang’s position as a Supreme Court Judge.
Samuel Nii-Adjei Duah, who identified himself as a Ghanaian citizen and a member of the Tsie We Family of Teshie, reportedly submitted a petition to President John Dramani Mahama on March 17, 2025, with copies sent to the Chief Justice, Gertrude Torkornoo, among others.
In response, Nuumo Adjei Sankuma III, the Osabu and Ayiku Wulomo of Teshie, as well as the Head and Lawful Representative of the Tsie We/Kle Musum Quarter, clarified that the petitioner does not officially represent the Quarter.
“Your Ladyship, we wish to bring to your attention that Samuel Nii-Adjei Duah has not been designated as the Lawful Attorney of the Tsie We/Kle Musum Quarter. The authority he claims to act upon is not recognised by the traditional leadership of the Quarter,” a rejoinder addressed to the Chief Justice, dated March 29, 2025, and copied to the Office of the President, the Attorney-General, the Speaker of Parliament, and others, stated.
Nuumo Sankuma III, who is duly gazetted in the Register of the National House of Chiefs, affirmed that he and the family are not associated with the claims made in the petition.
“This letter serves to clarify that any correspondence issued under the letterhead of an individual claiming to represent the Osabu and Ayiku Wulomo of Teshie does not reflect the position of the Tsie We/Kle Musum Quarter. The use of such a letterhead should not be considered representative of the views of the family.”
“Furthermore, I wish to state that I do not endorse or support any such petition submitted to your good office. The views and actions of Samuel Nii-Adjei Duah do not reflect those of the family.”
Nuumo Sankuma III emphasised that the family remains committed to upholding due process and ensuring that any concerns regarding traditional and legal representation are addressed through the appropriate channels.
