President Mahama stopped Chief Justice Torkornoo from working after three complaints were made against her. He looked at these complaints with the Council of State first. They found enough evidence to start checking if the claims were true. He put together a team to look into everything carefully. The President acted based on what our Constitution says.
A message from Minister Felix Kwakye Ofosu on April 22 informed everyone about this decision. The team is led by Justice Pwamang with help from Justice Adibu-Asiedu, former Auditor-General Domelevo, Major Dalugo, and Professor Dzisah. The President signed papers to remove the Chief Justice until the team finishes its work. The Chief Justice will stay away from her office during this time. All these steps follow what the law says must happen.
The Chief Justice gave her answers to these complaints on April 7 when the President asked her to explain. Nobody knows exactly what people said about her or how she defended herself. The Council of State received the complaints earlier as required by law. The investigation will show if any wrongdoing happened.
