Former Chief Justice Sophia Akuffo has hailed President John Dramani Mahama for paying monies due bondholders.

She believes that the president's action was in perfect order and in accordance with the law.

Sophia Akuffo indicated that her stance in the past was not because of her pocket but the previous government's decision to go contrary to the contract they had with bond holders.

The former Chief Justice was speaking to the press after she was sworn in as a member of the Council of State when she made this known.
