The Supreme Court of Ghana has quashed an order to reinstate Nii Tackie Adama Latse II as the Ga Mantse, thereby reaffirming King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II as the undisputed Ga Mantse.
This judgment marks the end of a four-year legal battle between the two parties, who have been contending for the Ga Stool.
The Court's ruling overturns an earlier directive by the Court of Appeal, which had ordered the National House of Chiefs to reinstate Nii Adama Latse's name in the register of chiefs, effectively challenging the legitimacy of King Teiko Tsuru II.
Background In April 2021, Nii Tackie Adama Latse II claimed that his name had been removed from the register of the National House of Chiefs without a formal destoolment process.
