Nana Yaw Sarpong, Political Aide to Alan Kyerematen, says the removed Chief Justice can still serve as a Justice of the Superior Court, as her removal only applies to her role as Chief Justice.
Speaking on Bullet TV’s Morning Target, Sarpong stressed that the constitutional process under Article 146 was followed, and there is no legal barrier stopping her from resuming courtroom duties.
“She hasn’t been removed as a judge, only as Chief Justice. She can still return to the bench,” he said.
He urged critics of the removal to base their arguments on legal grounds and suggested a national review of Article 146 to improve future procedures.
Sarpong also advised the former Chief Justice to consider early retirement and maintain her image as a stateswoman.
