Speaking at the official swearing-in ceremony held at the Jubilee House on Thursday, July 3, President Mahama stated, “We must protect our courts from political interference, economic manipulation, and public intimidation. An independent Judiciary is not a threat to government; it is a partner in nation-building.

We need Justices who are not swayed by popularity or pressure but are anchored in the Constitution, but driven by a journey in the desire to uphold justice without fear or favour”.

John Mahama added, You’re expected to serve not as arbiters of technicalities, but as stewards of justice and conscience”.

“Yours is not only a legal role, but a moral responsibility to safeguard our constitution’s spirit and interpret it in ways that advance the common good and protect the most vulnerable in our society.”

“All of you come onto the Supreme Court with vast experience and a solid knowledge of the law, and are deserving of this high office,” he stated.

“It is to this court that people turn when their freedoms are threatened, when justice seems distant, or when the complexities of modern governance test the Constitution,” he said.

The seven new Supreme Court Justices are:

Justice Sir Dennis Dominic Adjei

Justice Gbiel Simon Suurbaareh

Justice Senyo Dzamefe

Justice Kweku Tawiah Ackaah-Boafo

Justice Philip Bright Mensah

Justice Janapare Bartels-Kodwo

Justice Hafisata Amaleboba
