The Ghana Bar Association (GBA) has finally released details of the resolutions passed at its 2025 mid-year conference on the ongoing petitions for the removal of Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo.

The details confirm earlier reports that the GBA is demanding that President revoke the suspension of Chief Justice Torkornoo.

The association stated that the suspension of the Chief Justice by President Mahama was unconstitutional.

It argued that Mahama was not a judicial officer and there are no laws currently that give him the power to use his discretion to suspend the Chief Justice. "The Ghana Bar Association calls for the immediate revocation of the suspension of the Chief Justice, as it considers the suspension to be unconstitutional, considering the fact that the President, who is not a judge or judicial officer, exercised his discretion to suspend the Chief Justice under Article 146(10) of the 1992 Constitution in the absence of a published Constitutional Instrument, Statutory Instrument, or Regulation(s) governing the exercise of his said discretion as required by Article 296 of the 1992 Constitution," part of the resolution reads.
