Unlimited Supreme Court appointments risk political manipulation – Togbe Afede XIV

"The absence of an upper limit to the total number of Supreme Court judges allows adding, adding, and adding to satisfy political objectives," Togbe Afede XIV cautioned.

Speaking at the climax of the Supreme Court's 150th anniversary celebration in Accra, Togbe Afede XIV said safeguarding the independence of the country's apex court requires a critical review of the judicial appointment process, particularly the absence of a limit on the number of Supreme Court justices.

The President of the Asogli Traditional Area and former President of the National House of Chiefs, Togbe Afede XIV, has questioned the continued expansion of the Supreme Court without a constitutional cap on the number of judges.
