Deputy General Secretary Mustapha Gbande of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has dismissed calls from the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) for Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie to resign. Gbande maintains that the Chief Justice is not affiliated with the NDC and has not made comments warranting his resignation. The NPP criticized the Chief Justice's public remarks about state institutions, suggesting he should resign and join the NDC if he intends to comment on governance matters.
However, Gbande rejected these calls, arguing that the Chief Justice is a citizen with personal views on governance and does not need to represent the NDC. He accused the NPP of attempting to create controversy and suggested that the Chief Justice's comments should be evaluated based on their merit, rather than being dismissed as political.
