The Minority in Parliament has strongly condemned President John Dramani Mahama’s suspension of Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Torkornoo, calling it a “brazen judicial coup” and an alarming misuse of executive authority.
In a statement released on Monday, April 22, 2025, the Minority accused the President of pursuing political revenge and undermining judicial independence—especially as the legality of the removal process remains under review by the Supreme Court.
