Dr. Joshua Jebuntie Zaato, Senior Lecturer and Political Analyst at the University of Ghana, has asserted that the suspension of the Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo and the ongoing processes to remove her from office are sheer demands of some “hawks” within the NDC party.
Dr. Zaato believes that left to President Mahama alone, he did not want to have a record of suspending and potentially removing a Chief Justice from office as it has never happened in Ghana’s political history.
