Professor Stephen Kwaku Asare is upset about new judges heading to the Supreme Court. On April 30, President Mahama picked seven Court of Appeal judges for the High Court. He sent names like Justice Dennis Adjei and Justice Hafisata Amaleboba to Acting Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie for approval. The professor thinks this move might seem like fixing the balance after former President Akufo-Addo filled seats with NPP friends.

The law expert worries about growing the court to nineteen judges instead of making real improvements. He points out that large groups of judges often have trouble working together quickly and making clear decisions. This could create split opinions and slow down cases when many citizens already doubt the courts. Professor Asare believes Ghana needs honest judges with good resources who can work without outside pressure.

He asks leaders to follow the rules carefully and focus on making the courts better rather than just making them bigger. The professor warns against playing politics with something as important as the court system.
