A member of the (NDC) communications team and legal practitioner, Hamza Sayibu Suhuyini, has chastised the Ghana Bar Association (GBA), accusing the association of inconsistency and political bias in its public commentary on judicial matters.
Speaking on TV3's "New Day" on Tuesday, July 1, Suhuyini expressed disappointment with GBA President Efua Ghartey's recent statement regarding the suspension of Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo.
While acknowledging the association's democratic right to comment on issues affecting Ghana's governance, he insisted that their approach lacked fairness and principle. "It must be done in conformity with principles, and for me, that is my disappointment," he said. "It appears that the Ghana Bar Association only becomes vocal when the (NDC) is in power," he added.
Suhuyini further argued that the GBA remained silent during similar proceedings under Article 146 involving figures like Charlotte Osei, Justice Derry, and Loretta Lamptey.
