What’s behind CJ’s petitions? – Kwesi Pratt Jnr expresses shock

Veteran journalist, Kwesi Pratt Jnr, has questioned why the Chief Justice of Ghana, Gertrude Torkornoo, has received four petitions against her removal.

In a statement shared on his X page, he said that it is unusual for the president to receive four petitions for the removal of the Chief Justice.

“Indeed, this is the very first time that this has happened in our history, for the president to receive four petitions for the removal of Chief Justice within four months,” he indicated.

He added there should be some peculiar explanation to this.

However, he indicated that what the Chief Justice has done or might have not done could have provoked so many petitions against her stewardship.

The Minister of State in charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has, in an official statement, said that three of the petitions calling for the removal of the CJ have been referred to the Council of State.
