Ghana's Chief Justice Suspended Amidst Conflict of Interest Allegations

Ghana's Chief Justice Suspended Amidst Conflict of Interest Allegations Accra, Ghana – The suspension of Ghana's Chief Justice, Justice Agnes Torkornoo, has sparked controversy following allegations of a conflict of interest. A recent video report by Loud Silence TV revealed a contract awarded to "Design 37 Limited," a company owned by Justice Torkornoo's daughter, for renovations at the Judicial Service. The contract involves refurbishing the Judicial Service's library and lounge. The video presenter, whose identity is not revealed, presented documents seemingly supporting the claim. "This is a serious matter," stated the presenter. "The fact that a company owned by the Chief Justice's daughter received this contract raises serious questions about transparency and fairness within the Judicial Service." The Judicial Service has yet to issue an official statement addressing these allegations. The video's release has ignited public debate about ethics and transparency in Ghana's judicial system, highlighting the need for thorough investigation into the matter.
