Legal scholar and Democracy and Development Fellow in Public Law and Justice at CDD-Ghana, Professor Stephen Kwaku Asare aka Kwaku Azar, has expressed strong concerns over the recent elevation of seven Court of Appeal justices to Ghana's Supreme Court.
In a detailed opinion shared on Facebook, Prof.
Asare warned that the move could significantly erode the judiciary's effectiveness and credibility, particularly when the institution is already struggling with limited resources. "A bench of nineteen raises serious concerns about judicial effectiveness," Prof.
Asare wrote, pointing to the potential logistical and operational inefficiencies that may come with such a large panel at the apex court.
