Social activist Oliver Barker-Vormawor has described the removal of Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo as a moment that should spark sober reflection rather than celebration.
Sharing his thoughts in a Facebook post, he argued that the ouster marks the end of a disappointing chapter in Ghana's judiciary. "A chief justice has been removed.
But as someone with a front row seat through the process, hear me clearly when I say there is nothing to celebrate here," Barker-Vormawor wrote.
According to him, Chief Justice Araba failed to rise to the demands of her office, often choosing silence when the nation needed courage and integrity. "The removal of the Chief Justice is not a victory, but the closing act of a disappointing chapter. "Araba held the highest seat of justice at a time when courage and integrity were desperately needed, yet too often her leadership chose silence when the people cried out for answers.
