“JUST AS THE TAIL OF THE COW DIDN’T STAY FOREVER ON ITS ANUS, IN THE LIKE MANNER OR LIKEWISE, IT WON’T LAST IN THE HANDS OF THE FETISH PRIEST”

What would let John Cribo Mahama remove a sitting Chief Justice based on some dubious evidence and some personal vendetta and place you there when every Ghanaian knows what happened in 2013, I mean if not for sake of rewarding you for good job done at the 2013 elections petition? What really did Gertrude Torkonoo do that triggered her removal? Anyway, there’s an Akan adage that goes like:

“JUST AS THE TAIL OF THE COW DIDN’T STAY FOREVER ON ITS ANUS, IN THE LIKE MANNER, OR LIKEWISE IT WON’T LAST IN THE HANDS OF THE FETISH PRIEST”

What is good for the goose is good for the gander.
If Gertrude Araba Torkornoo was rewarded being an NPP card bearing member what stops another person from a similar reward?

You are part of those who for political reasons will never speak or stand for the truth even if saying the truth will save your wife and children lives.

Your “darling” will also be removed on the first day that President Bawumiah takes office.

You can thank your foolish NDC party for politicizing the judiciary.

And when it that? Tomorrow or next week. You see how bitter you sound. When your corrupt party was misruling you thought they'll be in power forever. By the way, when they removed Charlotte Osei as EC chair it was not politicing the EC, right? how did you feel? I suppose you were very happy. When Tokonnoo was always ruling in favour of Npp, the courts were not politicized, right? Even when a well known Npp parliamentary candidate was appointed to the supreme court, it was not politicizing the courts, right. Kwasia like you. You think you Npp are more human than others.

It is unfortunate that the sailors won’t believe you, maybe you ought tell it to the marines. Anyway, there is an Armenian Proverb that says:
“If there was Wisdom in beards, all goats will be prophets.”
The African version is similar and it goes this way:
“If beards signified intelligence, the goat would have been a genius.”

Measuring qualifications in number of years served on the Supreme Court bench alone with one's integrity in shambles is nothing to be proud of.

BAFFOE WILL NOT BE FIT FOR PURPOSE LOOKING AT THE BIAS IN HIS APPOINTMENT. INDEED MAHAMA HAS RUINED THE SUCCESS OF BONNIE ON THE JOB WHICH WILL BE SHORT-LIVED THOUGH UNLESS FOR THE RECORDS.

Being on the Supreme Court for 17 years shouldn't guarantee you the CJ position. The appointers/President can appoint anyone on the Supreme Court or from outside the Court to be the CJ. It's only in Ghana that we have this entitlement syndrome of seniority. This seniority entitlement is holding Ghana backwards. So if there's a person who could do the CJ job better than the most senior Justice on the court, that person couldn't be appointed? And Baffoe Bonnie can only serve one year in office before reaching his mandatory retirement age. Why can't Ghana appoint someone who can serve for at least 5 years before reaching the retirement age? The musical chair is too much. The current US CJ was nominated by President Bush to be a Justice of the court but before his Senate vetting the CJ Rehnquist died and his nomination was elevated to that of the CJ. So he got onto the Supreme Court as the CJ bypassing all those who were then already on the Supreme Court.

How old are you Sir? So not only did you work in the same chambers with Sir John in Kejetia but you were also classmates with from 6th Form at Konongo-Odumasi Secondary School and roommate throughout the 3 yrs in Legon Law School and two years at School of Law. Sir John left to go to secondary school via common entrance at Form 3 you Baffoe Bonnie completed form four before you went to secondary school. Sir John would 73 if he were to be alive while your course mate in Law and at the Supreme Court Justice Yeboah is 72.

How then can you be 68 YEARS old now, you clearly understated your age!!!

Interesting! Is this a mere coincidence or a replay of the controversy that surrounded the age of the late Chief Justice George Kingsley Acquah? Who according to JOY FM report might have started Class One at the age of One, as his date of birth (6th March, 1942) suggests at the time he was nominated as a Supreme Court Judge in 1995.

Its clear now why he changed his ruling at the last minute during the 2012 Election ruling. He chose what he can gain over what the truth is. He's not fit to be chief justice.
