Don’t be like ‘unfair’ Georgina Wood who accepted Anas’ ‘bogus, fraudulent’ video: Ghanatoday.net

Don’t be like ‘unfair’ Georgina Wood who accepted Anas’ ‘bogus, fraudulent’ video: Ghanatoday.net

January 23, 2020
in News


A New Patriotic Party(NPP) lawyer, Nkrabea Effah Dartey has advised new Chief Justice Justice Enin Yeboah not be like his ‘unfair’ predecessor who used Anas’ “bogus, fraudulent” judges video against judges.

He is therefore calling on the new CJ to finally solve all cases against judges affected by Anas Aremeyaw Anas investigations once and for all.

In an article piece sighted by MyNewsGH.com, the top NPP lawyer said Anas Aremeyaw Anas investigations video is “bogus and fraudulent”.

According to him, former Chief Justice Georgina Wood was unfair to judges.

“Put your foot down and finally solve the problem of the many judges who were affected by the bogus fraudulent Anas expose. I honestly believe that your predecessor judge Georgina Wood was most unfair in her treatment to them – their lawsuits against the judicial service got mixed up in adjournments, dockets not being traceable and so on. It is very bad.” He wrote.

“Petitions against wrongdoing are rife and you are the final authority to deal with them. Please, my lord, ensure that petitions against judges are thoroughly investigated, under a Certificate of Urgency, and decisions taken on them. I felt very sad when I met a judge at Asamankese walking in Accra, and I screamed: “My lord!!” And he said, “Oh Captain, haven’t you heard my story?” Apparently some negative allegation had led to interdiction and he had been appearing before disciplinary committees more than two years running.” He added.

See the article

Your very first priority must be how to get state of the art High Court Complexes for the new Regional capitals, especially Goaso, Sefwi Wiawso, Danbei, Damango and Nalerigu. It is better cheaper and more economical to build than to operate in rented quarters. Within two years from now you must commission all these projects.

The next priority must be a critical look at legal education in Ghana. My lord, the population of Ghana is over 30 million, and you know very well that LAW is the pillar of the society. We need to produce a minimum of 1000 lawyers every year in order to cope with the pace of development.

As Chairman of the General Legal Council, I recommend very strongly that you put in measures to ensure that the doors of the Ghana School of Law will be opened wider so that more people can pass through to become lawyers.

My lord Chief Justice, some of your Judges keep far too long at one station, and that encourages corruption. If you put Mr. X to a place, like Berekum, as Circuit Court Judge  and you allow him to sit there for four five six years, he gets so familiar with literally everybody there so that dispensing justice becomes skewed. Why should a High Court judge sit in the same chair for four five six years? Why not transfer him to Dambai or Sekondi?

Petitions against wrongdoing are rife and you are the final authority to deal with them. Please, my lord, ensure that petitions against judges are thoroughly investigated, under a Certificate of Urgency, and decisions taken on them. I felt very sad when I met a judge at Asamankese walking in Accra, and I screamed: “My lord!!” And he said, “Oh Captain, haven’t you heard my story?” Apparently some negative allegation had led to interdiction and he had been appearing before disciplinary committees more than two years running.

My Lord Chief Justice, be bold fearless and do justice. Put your foot down and finally solve the problem of the many judges who were affected by the bogus fraudulent Anas expose. I honestly believe that your predecessor judge Georgina Wood was most unfair in her treatment to them – their lawsuits against the judicial service got mixed up in adjournments, dockets not being traceable and so on. It is very bad.

Justice Anim Yeboah, for more than four years you sat on the Disciplinary Committee of the General Legal Council and so you can agree with me that a host of petitioner complaints and accusations are often FRIVULOUS and untenable, but due process must be followed, after all that is what is called JUSTICE.

My lord, sit up. Don’t be confused with invitations for opening ceremonies, addresses to big functions and so on.
Ah, one more thing.

The biggest problem of most criminal defence lawyers like me is the NON ANALABILITY OF TRIAL RECORDS to enable the appeal process to take place.

There are today over one hundred prisoners languishing in jail because they have been sentenced but the text of the judgments convicting them cannot be traced. How do you conduct an appeal for such persons, and the courts expect that you the convict prisoner should go chasing the judicial service for copies of the judgment!!!!

I recommend very strongly that you issue a practice directive that every Judge throughout Ghana after convicting an accused person must give a signed copy of the Judgment to the Registrar within seven days otherwise the conviction will be nullified; and it should be the duty of the judicial service to produce the trial records, not that of the accused/convict.

I have been at the Bar since 1986 and I have seen so much going on in the courts. Time and space will not allow me to write all that is on my mind, but allow me to say that it is Almighty God who has made you the CJ. Pray to Him DAILY. Ask for His guidance and protection.

Keep this my open letter very well and if and when you live through to go on retirement, pick it and re-read it and give yourself score marks.  Posterity is waiting to judge you.

May God grant you a successful tour of duty.
