Former Ghanaian Ambassador to Egypt and Saudi Arabia, H.E.
Alhaji Said Sinare, has launched a scathing attack on the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) over its plans to stage a demonstration against President John Dramani Mahama in response to the suspension of Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo.
In a fiery Facebook post, the influential National Democratic Congress (NDC) stalwart dismissed the planned protest as a "hypocritical and politically bankrupt charade." Alhaji Sinare, who currently serves as the National Chairman of the Zongo Caucus Working Committee of the ruling NDC and is widely regarded as the "Zongo President," accused the NPP of engaging in double standards.
He argued that the same party, which allegedly politicized and packed the judiciary with loyalists during its time in power, now seeks to champion judicial independence only because it suits their political agenda. "The NPP has a disgraceful history of eroding institutional integrity for its own selfish gain," Sinare wrote. "They shielded corrupt officials, manipulated judicial processes, and trampled on the independence of the courts.
