“Your task is not merely one of interpreting the law, it is also about ensuring that justice is served impartially
and with integrity. The Ghanaian people are looking to you to demonstrate honesty, sound judgment and a
strong attachment to the rule of law. A corrupt or incompetent Judge does more than fail in his or her duty.
He or she poses a significant danger to the administration of justice and the public interest. Unfortunately, we
have seen instances where judgments have been delivered without reference to precedent or worse, without
citing any legal authority at all. This should not be allowed to continue. As Justices of the High Court, you must
ensure that your decisions are grounded in legal precedent”, he said.
