Convener of the Fix The Country Movement and a member of the Ghana Bar Association (GBA), Oliver Barker-Vormawor has called on fellow GBA members to convene a special general assembly to reverse the Association's recent resolution challenging President John Dramani Mahama's suspension of Chief Justice Gertrude Sackey Torkornoo.
Speaking on TV3's KeyPoints on May 3, 2025, Barker-Vormawor labeled the resolution as politically driven and a threat to judicial independence.
He criticized the resolution as lacking legal merit, describing it as "an appeal cloaked in impropriety" that fails to meet the standards of a legitimate challenge.
Barker-Vormawor argued that the GBA's stance disregards established Supreme Court precedent and risks being misinterpreted internationally and domestically as an attack on the judiciary's autonomy. "History will not forgive us if we let this slide," he warned, urging members to act swiftly to overturn what he called a reckless move.
