Dr. Arthur Kennedy, a physician and political activist, has expressed concerns about the recent decisions made by the Supreme Court, suggesting that the institution is becoming increasingly politicized.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/59d6012c2fe74bfbb086ac88ca7fc4ff\"\/><\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. Kennedy, several recent cases have raised questions about the court&#8217;s impartiality, including the Domelevo case, the LGBT case, and the latest ruling on the four MPs who declared their intention to run as independent candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Kennedy fears that the Supreme Court is &#8220;prioritizing politics over law&#8221; and that this trend could have serious consequences for the country&#8217;s democracy. He notes that in other countries, the judiciary is not always the final authority, and that Ghana&#8217;s Supreme Court must be mindful of its role in the political landscape.<\/p>\n<p>The activist pointed out that the court&#8217;s recent decisions seem to favor one side, and that this has created a perception of bias. He also expressed concern that the court is too eager to intervene in political matters, which could lead to a loss of public trust.<\/p>\n<p>To address these concerns, Dr. Kennedy advocates for reforms to the judicial system, including the establishment of &#8220;guardrails&#8221; to prevent the Supreme Court from overstepping its bounds. He believes that a comprehensive review of the judicial regime is necessary to restore public confidence and ensure the stability of the country&#8217;s democracy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Supreme Court Prioritizing Politics Over Law&#8221; &#8211; See Why Dr. Kennedy Said Such News Hub Creator4h According to a report from JoyOnl\ufeffine.
