  "summary": "Professor Isaac Boadi, Dean of the Faculty of Accounting and Finance at UPSA, has criticized Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie's recent praise for public institutions under the current administration, arguing that the Chief Justice must maintain an impartial and neutral role in Ghana's constitutional democracy. Prof Boadi expressed concern that the Chief Justice's comments, which highlighted the positive performance of certain institutions, could create the perception that he was endorsing the government's performance rather than maintaining a detached and balanced perspective. He emphasized the importance of the Chief Justice's role as a symbol of neutrality and suggested that a more balanced approach would involve engaging institutions that were also recording losses or facing operational difficulties.",
