Judiciary Service needs greater investment, not tribunal courts – Baffour Awuah

Speaking on JoyNews' Newsfile programme on Saturday, July 18, Mr Awuah said the country's justice delivery system required improved infrastructure, logistics and resources to enhance its effectiveness instead of creating regional tribunal courts.

Vice-Chair of Parliament's Subsidiary Legislation Committee and member of the Constitutional and Legal Affairs Committee, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, has criticised the passage of the Regional Tribunals Act, arguing that Ghana should prioritise investing in the existing Judicial Service rather than establishing additional judicial structures.

The comments come in the wake of Parliament's recent passage of the Regional Tribunals Act, which has generated debate over its necessity and potential impact on Ghana's judicial system.
