    Justice Dotse gets the job in my book. His memorable phrase I believe amptly summed up Mahama's government and contributed in no small way to its defeat. He should be the next Chief Justice

    AKUFO ADDO IS NOT GIVING ANY POST OF NOTE TO AN EWE. MARK MY WORD. HE IS ACTUALLY REMOVING THEM FROM POSTS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR QUALIFICATION

  • Retired Special Branch Officer 7 years ago

    DENKYIRA, stop trying to divide the Country with your bias comment. Akufo Addo alone does not take decision alone on such an important issue. Please, we are all Ghanaians with different political beliefs. If Justice Dotse is ...

  • Alorvi 7 years ago

    Your article is spot on but Justice Dotse doesn't need to be an Ewe before he is given this position. He is qualified, competent, fair, fearless, knowledgeable and will uphold the rule of law. There is no one on the bench rig ...

    This is a point at which we shall see if Akufo Addo is truly President for all Ghanaians.
    Let's see who is appointed bearing in Mind that NPP like appointing from Ashanties and Akans for key positions.

    Sophia is the most senior of the lot, damn the thief Atuguba who should retire dishonorably. So let it not be that we overlooked the most senior because she is a woman? In any case, we are all for either of the 3.

    Justice Jones Dotse deserves the Chief Justice's position. He is qualified, hardworking, affable and knowledgeable.

  • Isaac Kwabena Afreh Aboagye I 7 years ago

    In the midst of this speculation no one has mentioned Justice Atukuba. Why? Is he already on retirement? Otherwise, if the President is looking experience and competency, Justice Atukuba is another fine gentleman.

  • Amoro Mpuse 7 years ago

    Nana no fool to encourage ewe hegemony

  • Amenu Isaac 7 years ago

    I agree. Dotse should be given the nod to serve mother Ghana. He has all it takes to take the mantle

  • Kuma 7 years ago

    This appointment of CJ is not like any other ministerial appointment. Let's watch these equations some of us are trying to balance.

  • Ford 7 years ago

    Justice Dotse deserves the appointment. We are not in a party of family and friends.
