The Minority in is urging President and Attorney General Dr Dominic Ayine to publicly respond to serious allegations made by suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Torkornoo regarding her ongoing impeachment proceedings.
Addressing the Press in on Friday, June 27, 2025, MP for Asokwa, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, criticised the silence from the Presidency and Attorney General 48 hours after the Chief Justice's public statement.
He called for an immediate response to address her claims. "We are of the view that, irrespective of what we think of her, there is a presumption of innocence until she is proven guilty.
In that sense, it is very important that all her rights to protect her innocence are called at her." The Asokwa MP also raised concerns about procedural irregularities, particularly the lack of transparency around the prima facie determination by the President and the Council of State, a critical step in initiating impeachment proceedings. "She makes a very fundamental point which underpins the principles of innocence.
