A member of the (NPP) Communication Team, Ellen Ama Daaku, has defended the suspended Chief Justice, Gertrude Araba Torkornoo, following public criticism of her recent address, insisting that the embattled judge has every right to voice her concerns.
Speaking on Morning Starr with Naa Dedei Tettey on Friday, June 27, Madam Daaku argued that regardless of her current predicament, Justice Torkornoo remains a Ghanaian citizen with the right to speak out if she believes she is being treated unfairly. "She's also a Ghanaian; she's expected to say what is worrying her if she feels that the committee is not treating her fairly.
And that's what she came to say; you can't stop her from voicing her opinion," Madam Daaku stated. "She's decided that she wants to do it that way; you can't tell her because she's a Chief Justice, she can't talk about what is happening to her.
You cannot sit on her happiness, you cannot push down her voice, you can't silence her.
