It is time for everyone who has interest in justice to speak up. What is happening in our judiciary under Godfred dame and torkonu is dangerous.
You have said it all
This evil woman is a threat to the peace and stability of this country, she is very wicked and manipulative
She’s also very vindictive
That's the way forward
Our hitherto enviable democracy is under threat now under this current government. They have thrown our justice system under the bus. What a shame!
The Chief Justice is a disgrace to the Judiciary
@Ralph, a disgrace upon a disgrace - she'll be the first CJ to remove from office in the 4th Republic
The CJ has destroyed our democracy , she’s evil and she will crush
She's just following the steps of disgraceful Anim Yeboah and she will go down with shame
All sane lawyers and legal professionals are tell the CJ one thing
She is biased, unprofessional and a disgrace to the legal profession
Very bias! She is a criminal
Say that again. And she seems not to be bothered at all. The disgrace she faced during her vetti g should have promted her to be doing the right things and not this.
This goes beyond Dr. Opuni. The current injustice happening in our various courts threatens our stability as a nation. All well meaning Ghanaians must speak up.
The CJ is a fool soldier of the NPP. She must change
She is a sex toy for Godfred dame and Akufo addo
This Chief Justice is the worst CJ we've ever had in Ghana!
How is she able to sleep at night knowing the crime she is committing? Even animals have sympathy.
@Caspur, she has lost all good will
She is just interested in pleasing the dwarf Akuffo Addo. Her days are numbered.
I dont know what is wrong with this woman working for her paymaster nana addo instead of the interest of the country shameless CJ
She's clearly shown how partisan and biased she is doing the bidding of Akufo-Addo and Dame.
I dont know what is wrong with this woman working for her paymaster nana addo instead of the interest of the country shameless CJ
It was a condition she signed up to before her appointment to manipulate the justice system and jail Dr. Opuni at all cost but she will fail. Even Iranian President who vowed to wipe Israel from the map died of a plane crash ...

So this woman has joined the npp criminal gangs?
Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo's actions is indeed beyond impunity!
Such a shame of a CJ
For the CJs juniors to question her decision show that she is bias and incompetent. She has reduced the CJ office to some road side position. Shameful conduct
It seems its only the CJ and the AG who do not see anything wrong with this action taken. A dent on our country's democracy
This Evil CJ Torkornoo, Evil AG Godfred Dame, Evil president Akufu Addo, Evil Yaw Osafo Marfo and co are not using the law against Dr.opuni and Agongo
BUT THEY ARE DOING POLITICAL WITCH HUNTING
GOD WILL PUNISH THEM
They are a disgrace to our judiciary! The CJ is only serving her paymaster who doubles as her mate. Shameless woman. Prostitute!
She hit the nail right in the head. I like the fact that she threw some shades to the Ghana Bar Association for their lack of responses to the recent happenings in the judiciary. GBA's silence on most of the issues is one of ...

Time to speak truth to power. We must revolt against this tyranny!
If a Chief Justice can act unlawfully and unconstitutionally like this just to satisfy her masters, then she is ripe for removal from office
Her petition for removal is already prepared, it's only a matter of time. They think they are above the Constitution and can ride on the back of political power to do what they like. This useless government will never last fo ...

@ Big Joe, her removal from office is certain and sure
@Ayaaba, her removal from office is non-negotiable!!!
The lawlessness with impunity in this country is too much. The abuse of power we see with President Akufo Addo is being exhibited by the chief custodian of our laws
@Kimg James, the CJ foolishly has become the body of abuse of power and impunity
What is this Chief Justice's interest in this case? What has Dr. Opuni done to you and your NPP to warrant this unfair treatment?
Her interest is that she got the CJ job with one single vision to jail Innocent Dr. Opuni and that is what she is doing.
Akufo Addo us desperate to destroy Opuni, the more he tries the more he is disgraced.
If legal luminaries are all against the act of the Chief Justice changing a panel and imposing herself as the presiding judge in Dr. Opuni's case, then Ghana is not safe
Every sensible person knows that the Chief Justice does not fit her role. She is a evil
Bias Chief Justice
We hope when Godfred Dame and Tokornu goes to their various they see the statues
at the forecourt of the Supreme Court, and events that led to those statues being mounted there. They should know that their arrogance has star ...

Corrupt cj… this can happen only in Ghana. Our judiciary system is doomed
We live in a most wicked country where citizens are no longer safe under this current Chief Justice.
what unlawful decision is this chief justice ,let justice prevail Ghana is a democratic nation not dictatorship
This CJ is acting worse than the former. She is a disgrace to the legal profession
It's unfortunate how this CJ, like her predecessor, has become a poodle.
It's evince, this CJ is not only being unreasonable, but amending the agenda of her master's
It's only in Ghana we can have this kind of injustice being done by those who are supposed to be delivering justice
This is the most partisan CJ I have ever seen in the history of Ghana, she behaves as if the NPP is going to rule Ghana forever. She is so reckless and too partisan to say the least
To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not. Dr. Opuni is innocent, and God will vindicate him.
CJ remember the world is watching you. you cant use your office to subvert the will of the people.
That chief justice is disgraced and embarrassed to Ghanaian women and women in general. But I pray that when the time comes she should be able to face it alone. That's my suggestion to her.
This chief justice is very cheap. I am aware justice Geogina wood served under two president because of he due diligence. Georgina wood even opted to stay out famous but novel 2012 election petition due to its partisan natu ...

The judiciary of Ghana is a mess working for the interest of Akuffo Addo and the NPP.
Ghana is no longer safe. The current justice system is in shambles! The international community must have interest in this matter!

People in positions of trust must be careful in their actions and inactions. Being a Chief Justice does not mean you can do whatever you want to innocent souls and go scot-free. Karma will visit you one day
Our democracy is in danger ⚡
Ghanaians must rise up to change this narrative else this country will be plundered into chaos one day. Changing this regime of arrogant fools at the helm of affairs is non negotiable come Dec.7th and we will resist any attem ...

madam Chief Justice why? Dr. Opuni is a human being just like you. stop the mafia work wai.
The chief justice is as useless as anything. All that she needs to make a decision is to get a call from Godfred Odami, gabby, osarfo Marfo or sometimes akuffo addo himself. Weak but useless chief justice.
What this Attorney general and chief justice are doing is an affront to democracy and plunge this country into chaos. Their dates are gradually numbering
The chief justice is compromised. She is not fit for the job. She has been fooled by the Akyim mafia's.
If the Chief Justice, who is the head of Ghana's judiciary, is seen acting unconstitutionally, then Ghana is in trouble. We are all not safe
Ghana is fucked up under this senseless government, they're just abusing power and this why nobody must go to court for justice.
Ghana is not safe under NPP.
Most citizens don't go to court because of these things. The judiciary under this CJ is in Bed with the government.
Let there be transparency in this case, if there is a reason for reconstituting another platform, kindly explain to us all the reason.
Justice Torkonoe is no different from Jeane Mensah, stupidified arrogant women who are nothing but an extension of the evil authocratic president we have on our hands. They will do anything to have their way but very soon, th ...

Ama Ghana why are we doing this to ourselves. why this injustice against Dr. Opuni.
supreme court of justice now supreme court of INJUSTICE under this current chief justice.
The injustice Chief Justice
Torkonu is the leader of the injustice justice system! She is an embarrassment
What kind of chief justice is this? The woman is not smart to read public perception about the judiciary she is heading or what? I had so much hope in her but it has been dashed. She is useless
Thank you lawyer for speaking up. That woman is disgracing women . Its unfortunate !!
The should give her gun to go and shoot Dr Opuni for them to be satisfied
When a nation elects an error of a president like Nana Addo, he appoints error riden persons like Jeane Mensah and Torkonoe just to kick his butts
Unconstitutionality at the highest level. CJ, you got it wrong. Apologize and do the right thing.

Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia have ended up jeopardizing our judiciary, with manipulations happening left, right, and center
We need a public revolution to register our displeasure to the tyrant president.

A society becomes dead when it's justice system becomes a manipulative in the service of justice. Torkonoo has been bewitched into this affront of justice.
Article 157(3) subverted for wicked selfish desires. Ghana's day of shame.
This woman is evil than Anim yeboah.
The CJ is dancing to the tune of small boy blackface Odame.
The table shall definitely turn around one day.
There will be no hiding place for them, no exile and no pardon for anyone. We all go dey inside
So people still go to court when the government is bent on controlling our justice system. Evil agenda galore.
Look at her face and mouth, tweaaaa
CJ what informed your decision to change the panel. what interest do you have. are we safe as citizens under this regime. too bad.

Enough of the politics, Madam Chief Justice. Allow justice to win in your dealings. Dr. Opuni is tired of your evil schemes
The evil men do lives after them. CJ and AG, remember, one day your actions and inactions will catch up with you.
I miss 1979 seriously.
Madam CJ, reverse your unconstitutional and unlawful act
Our leaders should remember the past military regime and do the right thing. Stop subverting our democracy.
People can be wicked. How can this NPP government disturb Dr. Opuni throughout their regime?
Dr. Opuni is a good man. Evil is pursuing a good man
CJ do the right thing before you end your tenure very soon.

A remote-controlled judiciary is not independent. This is clear evidence
corrupt judiciary
This woman is an enemy to the country she doesn't wish good for this nation bad CJ
It is no news. Anyone Mr Akuffo Addo appoint is just like him. Unlawful characters like Mr Akuffo Addo himself are the people in office running affairs of the country.
The NPP government is allowed to perpetrate crime against humanity and the CJ is one of the person leading it. The day of accountability and reckoning will surely come
the whole world have seen the evil this government is doing to Dr. Opuni. God will surely stand for him.
This evil woman from day one has been a threat to the Peace and security of this country.
God is watching them.
Do unto others what you want them to do to you. This injustice from CJ will be done to him and her family one day
The worst CJ ever in the history of Ghana
boycott the Courts and resort to instant justice on your own…
Her cup will soon be full. She should look at her predecessor Madam Gloria Akuffo
we don't trust the judiciary again. CJ is manipulating the laws to favour her controllers.
Can something good come out from this CJ?
Dr. Opuni has done so well for Mother Ghana. He helped Ghana Cocoa Board to rake in more profit for the country. He deserves commendation, not prosecution
I am a cocoa farmer. I used to get free fertilizer for my farms under Dr. Opuni. Today, I don't get free fertilizer anymore under this government.
This case has exposed the biased judiciary and the AG.. Tomorrow is indeed pregnant
This CJ is so bias
This CJ is so political
Madam CJ, you can't do what you want. You are in office because of the law, so use that same law to do your work and not subvert it
The lawlessness of Godfred Dame and CJ Torkonoo is too much. Their days are numbered
chief injustice Gertrude
Evil people at work. jusdiciary not safe.
nana addo and bawumia is destroying our court system.
targeting the innocent with the court system is not right. the court is for justice not injustice.
Some people in Gh have no shame...the politicization of the judiciary by akuffo addo is mind-blowing... opuni is truly innocent and it's evident now.. the plan of the wicked has bn made clear...
This Chief Justice is the worst CJ we've ever had in Ghana! She is soo bias

The hard-earned reputation of the court is being marred by this current CJ and the Nana Bawumia government
Dr. Opuni is being treated unfairly. This government targeted to destroy him since day one in office.
criminality at work.
The NPP government has failed, and now they want to use innocent people as scapegoats to please us, but it won't work.
Political persecution. CJ can herself alone sit on Opuni's case, his innocence shall prevail
Yet, the CJ attends church on Sunday, religiously pay tithe, and eat communion. What is blinding her is unimaginable, to say the least.
Torkonoo is behaving like a sub chief in a village desperately seeking to get the chief attention. Useless chief justice
This mad woman is fooling this way because her uncle was part of those who were murdered somewhere in the 80s. She has this bitterness for the NDC and everything NDC because of that.. but she should bear in mind that, not mat ...

We need more of Lawyer Francisca Serwaa Boateng to have progress as a democratic country. The chief justice is a thief like Cecilia Dapaah
Ghana has no future with the current political leadership that has hijacked the judiciary to manipulate all legal cases in the courts in its favor.
It is unfortunate Ghan has a female chief justice who behaves as a mafia queen. Torkonoo does not respect the laws of Ghana. She sees Akufo Addo Wishes as the laws of Ghana. very embarrassing
The chief justice has no confidence so she has resorted to singing praises of the crude and criminal enterprise president, Akufo Addo.
The judicial service is in tartars under the criminal lawyer the chief justice describe as the best lawyer ever in Ghana.
Ghana is being run by brainless leadership in many institutions. Chief justice is controlled by Attorney General and Jubilee house
The reasoning of Francisca Serwaa Boateng is very logical and sound. Francisca we need your tutorials on the laws regularly.
Justice Torkonoo is working for her pay masters
NPP and not the state
God will deal with her
TORKORNOO, YOUR SO CALLED POWER, HAS AN EXPIRY DATE AND IT CAN EXPIRE SOONER THAN EXPECTED, AND WHEN IT DOES, THE CHIMPANZEE CANNOT SAVE YOU.

The justice administration is being used to abuse Ghanaians with injustice. very strange.
Immediately one trust in Akufo Addo and try to please him he/she looses his/her conscience and act strangely. Akufo Addo is a curse on Ghana
We are tired of these people. The mafia work is too much.
Getrude Torkonoo is ending her useless chief justice service at the end of Akufo Addo term on January 2025
It is unbelievable how a chief justice of a nation can be such unlawful. She must be sacked immediately immediately before she destroy innocent people life
The criminal enterprise government has used the Attorney General Godfred Dame to destroy the Judicial Service.
The wickedness of the brainless chief justice is exposed. She is a failed chief justice and transferring her frustration to innocent.
The entire try processes and procedures of the trial of Dr Opuni is very bizarre. Every move of the criminal team to manipulate the judiciary exposes the wicked agenda these guys have against.
It appears the state is using this corrupt chief justice to do injustice to the accused persons and it must stop..

Democracy under Akuffo Addo is nothing to write home about and I wonder why these judges don't see anything wrong with the kind of crime they are perpetuating against their fellow human beings.
The actions of the chief justice justify the killing of some judges sometime Barnack. They have refused to use the law and their head but rather twisting the law to suit their pay masters. Accountability awaits these people..
The CJ is acting with impunity and has shown disregard to the rule of law to please her master - Akuffo Addo .
Maybe she is too young to remember history during JJ time .

Torkonoo is a shameless witch. She probably didn't earn her qualifications by merit. No one will trade her integrity for the joy of Akufo Addo the way this woman has
These criminals in robe need to be told the truth without any camouflage. Torkonoo is raping the judiciary and she must be told in no uncertain terms. Her conduct is reprehensible.
How can a panel of judges be changed after they have received the final arguments of the parties? It is only a lawless CJ who will do that. Torkonoo must go with Akufo Addo!
Such disrespect for the constitution must stop. CJ Torkonoo's action is unconstitutional and an affront to fair trial.
This CJ thinks the she is super human and so she can abuse her powers and even assume powers that are unconstitutional
Why do these Akufo Addo judges fear to live by the constitution? Such level of disregard for the constitution is not acceptable from any Lawyer and so when this comes from the chief justice, it is difficult to understand. Jus ...
