The unexpected resignation adds to growing developments within Ghana’s judiciary following the recent suspension of Chief Justice Gertrude Tokornoo by President John Mahama.
In response to the resignation, the Acting Chief Justice has moved swiftly to appoint the Deputy Judicial Secretary as the acting replacement, pending a final decision by the Judicial Council.
