Former UN Senior Governance Advisor, Professor Baffour Agyeman-Duah, has proposed to the Constitution Review Committee to amend Article 146 of the 1992 Constitution, which outlines the procedures for removing the Chief Justice from office.

Speaking on JoyNews on September 3, 2025, Prof Agyeman-Duah said that the appointing power must be taken away from the executive branch of government, specifically the president.

He argued that the current process exposes the judiciary to partisan interference and undermines the constitutional balance of power. "The system of selecting or appointing our Chief Justice must be reviewed.

It should be taken away from the executive.
