The Member of for Asante-Akim Central, Kwame Anyimadu-Antwi, has expressed reservations over the approval of seven new justices to the Supreme Court, describing the move as unprecedented.
He argued that appointment can potentially be disruptive to long-standing conventions that have guided the judiciary.
Addressing the issue during an interview on Joy News and monitored by GhanaWeb on Wednesday, June 25, 2025, he explained that while the Constitution does not explicitly limit the number of Supreme Court judges, successive governments have maintained the number at 14. "When Akufo-Addo took office, he met 14 justices on the bench and left it at 14.
Even now, with the Chief Justice suspended, we have 12.
