Renowned legal practitioner Tsatsu Tsikata is worried about what he describes as a worrying decline in public confidence in Ghana's judiciary.
According to him, this situation has the propensity to trigger dire implications for the country's democratic framework.
His comments come amid findings from the 2024 Mo Ibrahim Index on African Governance, which reported a stark drop in Ghana's judicial autonomy from 100% to 50% over the past seven years, reflecting a significant shift in perceived judicial independence.
Speaking on Accra-based GHOne TV, Mr Tsikata explained the broader impact of this perception on the legal profession and the overall adjudication process.
