Former Attorney General Godfred Yeboah Dame has rejected suggestions that his legal representation of suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo in her injunction application creates any conflict of interest.
The remarks come amid criticism from legal experts, including Prof Kwaku Ansa-Asare, former Director of the Ghana School of Law, who argue Mr Dame's involvement complicates the case given his previous role in Torkornoo's appointment.
Prof Ansah-Asare argued on Joy FM's Newsnite that this creates poor optics for the suspended Chief Justice's case, given that Gertrude Torkornoo was appointed to her office during Mr.
Dame's tenure as Attorney General and the former President's official legal advisor.
