The Attorney General has insisted that the suspension of the Chief Justice will continue to remain in effect until the inquiry into her misconduct is over. "Neither Latimer House Principles nor the constitution prohibits the suspension of a Chief Justice once a prima facie determination of misconduct or misbehaviour has been made.
The suspension will therefore remain in effect until the inquiry committee completes its work and submits its report to which His Excellency the President will adhere," a statement from the AG read.
The response comes after a joint statement issued by the Bar Council of England and Wales (BCEW) and the Commonwealth Lawyers Association (CLA) on August 14, 2025, called for her reinstatement.
Ghana's Attorney General, in a strongly worded response, indicated that the country has not breached its constitution, nor has there been an executive overreach in the suspension of Her Ladyship, Justice Gertrude A.E.S.
