Renowned US-based Ghanaian lawyer and scholar, Professor Stephen Kwaku Asare, popularly known as Kwaku Azar, has defended his petition for the removal of Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo.
In a post shared on Facebook on Friday, April 18, 2025, Kwaku Azar indicated that there is nothing wrong with the petition he filed for the removal of Justice Torkornoo or her supposed suspension by President following his petition.
He pointed out that this is not the first time a public official has been suspended in a similar situation, citing the example of Lauretta Lamptey, a former Commissioner of the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice. "Time will tell nothing.
We have always insisted on punishing wrongdoers.
