Mahama slams judiciary over SALL exclusion; calls for fairness and reform
The flagbearer of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Dramani Mahama has criticised the judiciary, accusing it of bias and a lack of commitment to justice for the people of Santrofi, Akpafu, Lolobi, and Likpe (SALL).
Speaking at a mini rally in the Guan constituency, the NDC flagbearer highlighted what he described as a glaring injustice, questioning the judiciary's handling of the matter and its broader implications for Ghana's democracy.
Mr. Mahama lamented the exclusion of SALL from parliamentary representation, a situation he called “the cardinal sin of the Fourth Republic,” and stressed the need for a judiciary that is “fair and consistent” in upholding the rights of all citizens.
"The justice system must be impartial and accessible to everyone, yet the plight of SALL has been neglected," the NDC flagbearer asserted, addressing the crowd in Guan, where frustrations over the issue remain high.
Many stakeholders have voiced their concerns over the SALL constituency's lack of representation in Parliament, a critical gap that has left residents without a direct legislative voice.
Mr. Mahama expressed solidarity with the people, stressing that the judiciary’s lack of action has exacerbated the issue.
He also questioned the principles guiding Ghana’s justice system.
