One of the issues that remains a matter of public debate following Chief Justice Getrude Torkornoo's removal is whether she will receive her pension and other benefits as an Article 71 office holder, popularly termed as ex gratia.
Some persons, including legal practitioners, have argued that Justice Torkornoo would not get her ex gratia but is entitled to her pension.
Others have argued that she will get nothing from the state.
According to reports, Justice Torkornoo has engaged President , through some prominent Ghanaians, to plead with the president to allow her to retire in order to protect her end-of-service benefits.
