President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has rebuked John Dramani Mahama, for his recent attack on the judiciary.
According to the President, the attack is “extremely dangerous” to the independence of the judiciary, so he called on Ghanaians to reject the former President’s bid to return to power in 2024.
“Not only are these concepts of ‘NPP’ and ‘NDC’ judges new in our public discourse but are also extremely dangerous,” Nana Addo said at the 23rd Ghana Bar Association Annual Conference in Cape Coast on Monday, September 11.
BACKGROUND
Former President Mahama last weekend said lawyers aligned to the NDC to get prepared to be appointed to the bench to “balance out what the current situation is”.
Addressing the 3rd Annual Lawyers Conference of the NDC on Saturday, September 2, John Mahama alleged President Akufo-Addo of appointing the highest number of judges.
“He has appointed the biggest number of judges onto the bench, it is more than 80 towards 100 and counting” he added.
