Said Sinare, National Chairman of the Zongo Caucus Working Committee of the ruling National Democratic Congress, has come out fiercely in support of the suspension of Ghana's Chief Justice, calling the move by President John Dramani Mahama a necessary intervention to restore integrity to the country's judiciary.
In a post on Facebook, Sinare lashed out at the suspended Chief Justice, accusing her of treating the judicial system like a "personal auction" where justice was dispensed based on who could pay the highest price.
He further criticised her for abandoning the values of fairness and impartiality that should define the judicial branch of government. "For too long, the Chief Justice treated justice like a personal auction - where verdicts felt sold to the highest bidder, and the ordinary Ghanaian was left begging for fairness," Sinare wrote.
He emphasised that the government's decision to suspend the Chief Justice was not just justified, but a timely rescue mission for a judiciary that had been under threat due to her actions.
