Janet Nabla, the Founder of the People’s National Party (PNP), has condemned the suspension of Ghana’s Chief Justice (CJ), accusing President Mahama of violating the Constitution throughout the entire process.
Speaking to ABC News GH in light of the ongoing controversy, Nabla declared that the government’s actions were part of a “predetermined plan” to remove the CJ.
“The government throughout the processes has flouted the Constitution,” she stated, pointing out that the President’s actions were taken despite ongoing legal proceedings surrounding the issue.
Nabla emphasized that Mahama’s decision to suspend the CJ while the case was still under judicial review was a direct violation of the law. She referenced a legal injunction placed on the case, which was intended to halt proceedings until a court decision was made.
“Mahama is not above the Constitution of Ghana. He shouldn’t have gone ahead and suspended the CJ while the case was in court,” she said.
The PNP leader also accused the President of undermining the very Constitution that helped him attain the presidency.
“He is destroying the Constitution of Ghana, the Constitution that helped him to become the President of Ghana. He is now abusing it,” Nabla added.
Addressing claims that her stance was politically motivated, Nabla firmly rejected such accusations, stating that her actions were driven by a commitment to the country rather than political gain.
“I am not doing this for political gains, I am doing this for the country,” she affirmed.
Her remarks come as a coalition of political parties, including the PNP, NPP, LPG, NDP, and GUM, prepare for a nationwide protest on May 5, 2025, against what they describe as a “reckless assault” on Ghana’s democracy.
The coalition is calling on all citizens, civil society organizations, and religious groups to join the protest, urging a united stand to protect judicial independence and resist attempts to “capture every arm of government, even the judiciary.”
The mass demonstrations will take place in Accra, Kumasi, and Tamale.
