Meanwhile, attempts to remove her are being challenged by the Member of Parliament for Tafo in the Ashanti region, Vincent Ekow Assafuah, at the Supreme Court.
According to the MP, the President, John Mahama, committed a constitutional breach when he referred the three separate petitions asking for the removal of the Chief Justice from office to the Council of State without notifying the Chief Justice.
During the third appearance at the Supreme Court on Wednesday, April 16, the Court adjourned the case to May 6.
