Martin Amidu has launched a scathing critique of retired Chief Justice and current Council of State member, Ms. Sophia Akuffo, over her recent remarks advocating a constitutional amendment to the process for removing a Chief Justice.
The former Attorney General and anti-corruption crusader argued that Sophia Akuffo’s calls—made at a Constitutional Review Committee (CRC) sitting hosted by the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA)—must be understood within the context of current petitions before the President seeking the removal of the incumbent Chief Justice, and the decisions that have followed in consultation with the Council of State, of which she is an active member.
