The Chief Justice (CJ), Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo, has emphasised the importance of notarial practice in Ghana's legal system, describing it as a critical aspect of ensuring integrity in legal documentation.
She made these remarks at the launch of the book "Notarial Practice in Ghana: Law, Cases, and Materials," which was authored by Daniel Yaw Abaidoo in Accra Thursday.
In an address read on her behalf, she commended the author for his dedication to producing a comprehensive legal resource that will serve as a valuable reference for legal practitioners, researchers, and judicial officers.
She noted that while the role of notaries was often overlooked, it remained fundamental in safeguarding the authenticity of documents used in legal and commercial transactions.
