On Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, Adorye emphasized that seasoned judges could bolster the OSP's independence and effectiveness. He suggested that instead of appointing younger professionals, the government could consider appointing experienced judicial figures, who could effectively wield authority without personal ambitions clouding their decision-making. Adorye highlighted Justice Dotse as an example of a judge who, even for a brief term, could have a profound impact. He argued that retired Supreme Court judges, equipped with years of public service, would contribute valuable maturity, legal expertise, and experience to the OSP.
