President has urged the newly appointed Justices of the Supreme Court to embody justice, integrity, and national renewal.
Speaking during the swearing-in ceremony of seven new Supreme Court Justices at the Jubilee House on Thursday, July 3, 2025, he described their elevation as a moment of national significance that speaks to both their distinguished legal careers and the broader aspirations of a nation in search of renewal. "It is a moment that affirms your merit and experience, as well as the hopes and expectations of a nation striving to reset, renew, and rebuild.
All of you come onto the Supreme Court with vast experience and a solid knowledge of the law and are deserving of this high office", he noted.
Pointing out the judiciary's role in Ghana's democratic architecture, President Mahama emphasised that the Supreme Court serves as the final custodian of the Constitution and a vital safeguard for civil liberties. "It is to this court that people turn when their freedoms are threatened, when justice seems distant, or when the complexities of modern governance test the Constitution," he said.
