Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr. Dominic Ayine, has firmly rejected calls for President John Dramani Mahama to suspend proceedings relating to the determination of a prima facie case on petitions seeking the removal of Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo.

The Supreme Court, presiding over an injunction application aimed at halting the President and the Council of State from advancing the process, adjourned the case to May 6, 2025.

The delay was attributed to the absence of one of the five Justices, His Lordship Samuel Asiedu.

The injunction application, filed by lawyer and plaintiff Godfred Yeboah Dame, seeks to prevent the President from continuing with the petition review until the Supreme Court delivers its ruling.

Speaking to the media after the adjournment, Dr. Ayine defended the President’s actions, emphasizing his constitutional obligation to proceed with the process.

He questioned the legal basis of the calls to halt proceedings, stating, “He has applied to the court, and the court is yet to make an order. So, if he is saying that the court must hold on? Is he saying that the court has already granted an order in respect of which the President must not continue the process?”

Dr. Ayine further underscored the constitutional clarity on the matter, asserting, “He must understand that it is the constitutional duty, and the law is very clear that you cannot enjoin the performance or conduct of a public communication.”
