    Madam these are good observations but only used by the NPP group of lawyers to delay justice. They can establish fast track court for speedy justice but will reject some judges sitting during vacation as selective justice. It ...

    Right on spot. Justice delayed is justice denied but not in Ghana where a simple case takes centuries. This is also evil and criminal

    These delay were seen in the NPP era where every little case is rushed to the Supreme Court belittling the apex Court.
    Growing up, the Supreme Court was known for determining very critical high cases. The belittling of the ...

    For my money , those Unnecessary interlocutory appeals at the Supreme Court are just a move to give “BAILS “ to the clients of some Lawyers. Those prisoners in Custody should remain in CUSTODY while these Unnecessary in ...

    What stopped Justice Akuffo from solving the problem when she was the CJ?

  • Justice-One 22 hours ago

    Did she mention when she noticed this trend? As a justice of the Supreme Court and a Chief justice what did she do about this problem? Complaining now seemed indicting her successors.
