Daniel Ofori, the petitioner calling for the removal of Ghana’s suspended Chief Justice, has issued a public statement condemning her for allegedly violating constitutional procedures by discussing the petition against her in the media.
In a letter dated June 27, 2025, and addressed to all media houses, Ofori expressed concern over comments made by the suspended Chief Justice during a media engagement on June 25, where she reportedly spoke about the petition and the related proceedings.
“The Chief Justice is acting in clear breach of the provisions of the 1992 Constitution of the Republic of Ghana which require the inquiry to be in camera,” he stated.
Ofori stressed that, as a law-abiding citizen, he would not engage in a public exchange or respond to what he described as “plain falsehoods” from the Chief Justice. Instead, he emphasized his commitment to respecting the constitutional process.
“When it is constitutionally and legally appropriate to engage the public on matters regarding my petition and the process, I shall do so,” he concluded.
