People like Atta Kyea are dishonest to the marrow and must spare us with their propaganda. The constitution clearly envisaged the fact that, there will a time a CJ will be corrupt, incompetent or incapacitated which must be removed by the same constitution which appointed him/her. Same as even the president can be impeached by the same constitution. So what's Atta Kyea blabbing about? That some people should be made above the constitution of the republic? This removal will rather instill discipline in the system where every appointee including the elected under the constitution knows nobody is above the law. I concur THE LAW IS THE LAW!

GHANA'S FUCKING THIEVING LEADERS AND ELDERS WILL NEVER LEARN LESSONS FROM THIS ERA OF GLOBAL RACISM AND XENOPHOBIA AGAINST THE BLACK RACE, PRIMARILY AFRICAN BLACKS..

GHANA'S LEADERS ARE RATHER FOCUSED ON LOOTING THE ECONOMY AND STASHING THEIR LOOTS IN PERSONAL FOREIGN BANK AND OTHER ACCOUNTS IN FAKE IDENTITIES.

CAPITAL FLIGHT OUT OF GHANA WHICH SHOULD BE USED TO DEVELOP GHANA TO MAKE LIFE WORTH LIVING FOR ALL GHANAIANS RATHER ENDS UP IN OUR LEADERS' FOREIGN BANK ACCOUNTS AND OTHER INVESTMENTS ABROAD.

GHANA'S GOLD BARS, DIAMONDS, AND OTHER PRECIOUS MINERALS ARE NOT SPARED FROM THE ENDEMIC LOOTING IN GHANA BY GHANA'S LEADERS AND FOREIGNERS USING FAKE RETAIL BUSINESSES AS FRONTS!

DOES ANY WESTERN, ASIAN OR ARAB LEADER OPERATE PERSONAL BANK ACCOUNTS IN AFRICA? NEVER! AFRICA'S LEADERS HAVE NO CONSCIENCE!

GHANA'S ELDERS AND LEADERS HAVE DESTROYED OUR COUNTRY WITH THEIR DECADES OF THIEVING AND THIS FOOL IN CANADA IS HOLDING BRIEF FOR THIEVES.

WHY IS THIS GUY STILL HOLED UP IN CANADA? WHAT'S HE STILL DOING IN SOMEONE'S COUNTRY? HE'S STAYED PUT OVER THERE BECAUSE CONDITIONS IN GHANA HAVE BEEN DESTROYED BY GHANA'S THIEVING ELDERS AND LEADERS,
ALL OF THEM SCOOP EX-GRATIA UNJUSTIFIABLY FOR ABSOLUTELY NO WORK DONE.

ALL OF GHANA'S STATE INSTITUTIONS ARE WOEFULLY DYSFUNCTIONAL BECAUSE OF DECADES OF POOR LOOTING FREELOADING LEADERSHIP OVER THE YEARS, SINCE 1957.

THEY STEAL GHANA'S EVERYTHING INCLUDING OUR GOLD AND DIAMONDS, ON TOP OF WHICH THEY COLLECT PER DIEMS FOR PERSONAL TRIPS ABROAD AS RECENTLY UNEARTHED BY THE SACKED FREELOADING CHIEF JUSTICE.

AS FOR CECILIA DAPAAH, KEN AGYAPONG, AKUFO-ADDO, KUFUOR, ETC,THE LITTLE SAID ABOUT THEM, THE BETTER.

Charlotte Osei’s removal has created this vicious cycle brouhaha, lawyer Atta Kyea you need to be told that.This is what has consequently brought thus far.
What kind of selective judgment is this. AG, Counsel State and the President have no intention of deliberately removing the CJ but only followed constitutional processes and procedures.
The whole NPP camp is now crying foul but when the same thing was visited on the former EC chair people like Atta Kyea who I believe is a gentleman were there but preferred to be silent. What kind of hypocrisy and gutter politics is this. Yet these are lawyers who are supposedly said to be having very high Intelligence Quotients ( IQ).
The law still remains the law, moreover what is good for the goose is equally good for the gander.
We don’t have some a group people in our country who are affected only by the laws of the land? The laws are applicable to all and sundry. There should no subtle application of the laws of the land to some and leave out. No! no selective application of the law because the law is the law remains the law.

They are not different. Let me give you and others like you the layman's explanation so you can understand. The judiciary (the courts), the legislature (parliament) and the executive (presidency) branches of government are said to be co-equal requiring no political influence from one unto the others.

Yet if you look at the processes by which one becomes a president and vice, member of parliament or a judge you find that it is members of the judiciary that are not directly elected into office by voters. MP's and the President or vice president can be impeached or removed from office by voters.

In the meantime independent departments of government like the judiciary (including the human rights court) and the EC must also have a process that must be followed if the heads or deputy heads must be removed from office. Since they're not elected by voters but appointed by the president and confirmed by members of parliament then the steps to remove heads or deputy heads must be the same. Hence the removal of Charlotte Osei, head of EC and removal of the CJ are the same including the fact that both are women and first time for removing female heads.

What k8nd of narrative is this? Atta Akyea was there when Akufo Addo used the same article to remove Charlotte Osei and her deputy at the Electoral Commission. At that time, he Atta Akyea did not see anything wrong with it. And is he arguing that if you have an appointed official who has been fingered for abusing the law, you still keep the fellow at post? Is he saying the former CJ did nothing wrong? At least she used our money to finance her daughter and husband to travel abroad. Is that not crime enough? I am sick and tired of these old nation wreckers whose priority is to discredit government after their own poor performance over the years. We witnessed his party NPP jailing Tsikata on flimsy grounds. We saw them jail Victor Selormey who died in prison. We saw these people persecuting Kwame Peprah. As if these are not enough, Akufo Addo came and in a flash, removed Charlotte Osei, the then EC boss. We saw him persecuting Atto Forson, Gyagye Quaison and others. Atta Akyea was very much alive by then but supported the acts of terrorism inflicted on innocent Ghanaians. Today, he is the same person now playing the 'holier than thou'
fiddle. I am afraid we hardly forget such atrocities.

When Nkrumah removed the first CJ, some Ghanaians at that time spoke against it like we are doing today. The very moment we destroy the Judiciary; we are gradually heading towards something unknown but some Ghanaians who are clueless have no idea.

There are those who are equating the offices of the CJ to that of the EC which shows the level of their sense of thinking.
