The Member of Parliament for Garu, Dr. Thomas Anaba, has cautioned the public and political commentators against drawing hasty conclusions regarding the possible removal of Chief Justice(CJ) Gertrude Torkornoo.

Speaking on Channel One Newsroom on Saturday, June 28, Dr. Anaba clarified that the ongoing inquiry into the Chief Justice is still in its fact-finding phase and that no final decision—whether exoneration or removal—has been made.

“No one knows whether she will be removed or not for now. We only know there is a probe going on. Whether she will be exonerated or she will be finally removed, as at now no one knows,” he said.

He criticised narratives suggesting that the government is engineering the Chief Justice’s removal, describing such claims as premature and misleading.

Dr. Anaba stressed that President Mahama’s involvement in the process was strictly constitutional and procedural.

“Anybody who has already put the cart before the horse, that they are working to remove her, is committing an error. Because one, it is not the government who initiated the process.

“The government or the president only acted following the rules or laws of the country,” he stated.

His remarks come amid ongoing public debate surrounding the petition and legal proceedings against the Chief Justice, with some raising concerns about potential political interference.
