The Concerned Women's Group of the Central Region has kicked against the petitions to remove the Chief Justice, Gertrude Torkornoo, from office.
Consequently, it has called on all women and women groups in the country to stand up and be counted in the face of what it termed, creeping cloud of darkness, ostensibly intended to engulf the progress thus far made in women empowerment.
It also called on the Council of State to see through the lines, and without any hesitation step in to prevent this removal process since it won't heal and unite the country.
At a press briefing held at Cape Coast, the spokesperson for the Concerned Women's Group in the Central Region, Miss Vivian Gassor, explained that the group was extremely worried that such moves may be embarked upon, not for the good of it, but purely, patently, and undoubtedly for a parochial end. "We, as a concerned women's group in the Central Region, have been worried and disturbed since the announcement of that the President had forwarded three petitions seeking the removal of the Chief Justice to the Council of State," she emphasised.
