The Progressive Peoples Party (PPP) has issued a statement supporting the suspension of Ghana's Chief Justice.
According to the party, President John Mahama acted lawfully and in full compliance with the 1992 Constitution.
The party stressed that due process was followed, including consultation with the Council of State and an opportunity for the Chief Justice to respond to allegations.
In the press release dated April 28, the PPP stated: "We wish to reiterate our firm belief that the suspension, as executed by the President, was lawful and in full compliance with the due process of law as enshrined in our 1992 Constitution." The party further highlighted that the President's actions were based on a preliminary determination of a prima facie case against the Chief Justice.
