Jesus Christ loves you and wants to save you from sin and its consequences. Vanity upon vanity—everything in this world is meaningless without Him. He died on the cross for your sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. Believe in Him, accept His gift of forgiveness, and receive eternal life! (John 3:16).nddb

@bb, you and who are tired? Keep your inferiority complex to yourself. It is due such complex that her male colleagues gang up against her. The men were not comfortable with her leadership.

It is very unlikely that Baffoe Bonnie or indeed any one of the other SC judges are not as guilty of the charges that brought the CJ down.

The moment he is appointed, a petition should be submitted for his removal on the same charges to test the non-partisan nature of the CJ removal.

The NPP members of the appointment c'ttee can grind the judiciary into a ditch by exposing similar actions of BB rendering him unfit for the post.

And when your Akuffo Addo was misruling the country, did your dickhead tell you he'll be in power forever? Of course, power is transient, and Mahama never told you stupid fellow that he'll be in power forever. You see how bitter most of you Npp tribal biggots feeling? When Akuffo Addo removed Charlotte Osei and Domelevo, how was your feeling? You guys nevet saw anything wrong with it. A measure of your own dose has been given back to you and the only thing you people think about is retaliation. No problem. Wait when you get the power you can remove the CJ and put your Npp chaiman there.

And at he would be the CJ for only one year since he was born in Dec 1956. Of what use would that be?

Akuffo Addo made the judiciary a partisan extension of his office. How do you nominate someone on the scale of seniority 11th to be CJ? If not partisan then what it is. Because you have power to appoint. That is the down fall ...

You half wit, there has never been a time in our democracy when the senior most is appointed a CJ. Annin Yeboah, Sophia Akuffo, Georgia wood, Acquah Kingsley, Edward wiredu, sowah, archer, Apaloo, Banner man, Etc were all not senior at the time of their appointments. Even appointment to the Supreme court is not based on seniority. That's a propaganda spin.

@Kk. A toak like you. Who cares if your microminority leaves parliament. When they were misbehaving in gov't you didn't calling that fooling. Kwasia like you. You can continue to wail, but the law is the law. Democracybis never under attack. Democrarcy has rather triumph of mediocrity and manipulation. When your Akuffo Addo and your corrupt party were manipulating the judiciary, you stupid goon saw nothing wrong with it. Today, you're lamenting about someone who misbehaved while holding one of the highest office of the land.

just now
It seems the petition was written by the NDC’s chief legal adviser, Tsatsu Tsikata, for the so called petitioner. Folks must read it carefully. It seems there was a political agenda hatched by the NDC to remove this lady for reasons stemming from the last election petition. No ordinary citizen can write this petition with insider’s details. The committee needed to investigate how the legal brief was put together (procedural due process)! It’s clear the lady has been bullied harshly for her stance on the last election petition. Those who have “eyes” can see what’s going on!! No one is safe on the CJ throne if Ghanaians accept this dubious ways of removing CJs.

He is the main brain behind the removal of the CJ. He thought he was losing so many cases the woman had presided. Former President Kufuor should have allowed this evil Anlo thief to rot in Jail.

@Prof .USA. So, who wrote Charlotte Osei's own? So did the NPP hatched against Charlotte Osei? If you have evidence that the NDC hatched Otorkonno's removal why not challenge her removal at the court.

So will this Baffoe Bonney go for this accursed position. After the diabolic and evil machinations of JM and his cronies you ll accept this role. You will be disgraced big time. Whatever a man sows he will reap it. You were all part of a grand scheme to remove the cj. Your days are numbered. The God of Torkonoo will soon speak again. Wicked and murderous souls at the helm of affairs. It is a sad day to be a Ghanaian.

"THE BATTLE DONE"

3. The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court from the North
4. The Director of the Ghana School of Law from the North

This idiot as Chief Justice? Ghana's democracy is dead. This is just like appointing Asiedu-Nketia or Fiifi Kwetey as head of the Judiciary. He will be NDC Chief Justice and not Ghana's CJ. The country has been put on reverse gear since January.

A petition for his removal is in draft already. The charges are the same as was used to sack the CJ: Taking advantage of travel entitlements as set out in his appointment letter as a SC judge.

Is it not this same man who is believed to have taken bribe to rule for Mahama when the elections were contested in the first election duel with Akuffo Addo? He is a questionable person.
