Former Director of the Ghana School of Law, Kwaku Ansa-Asare, has weighed in on the ongoing debate surrounding the recent public address by suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo regarding her removal process.
He criticised her call for a "public hearing", asserting that constitutional matters of such gravity should not be aired publicly.
Speaking on Citi FM's Eyewitness News on June 25, 2025, Ansa-Asare described the Chief Justice's remarks as inappropriate, suggesting that the address was merely an attempt to court public sympathy. "Ghanaians wanted to support her to go all in, and then at the end of the process, everyone will see whether the process was transparent.
She has done more than 50% and now she is saying that the process was skewed, but she cannot resign?
