The appointment of new Supreme Court judges in Ghana has stirred controversy, with the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) accusing President Nana Akufo-Addo and Chief Justice Gertrude Torkonoo of conspiring to pack the Supreme Court with judges sympathetic to the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
The NDC has called for an immediate halt to the appointments, arguing that they undermine the independence of the judiciary and pose a threat to Ghana’s democracy.
