Judicial integrity badly damaged by Anas exposé - Akufo Addo


President Nana Akufo-Addo has charged judges and lawyers to rebuild the judiciary system to win back the trust and believe of Ghanaians after it was badly bruised by the Anas exposé.

“There is a consolable concern within the Ghanaian public about the integrity of our judicial system. It was badly damaged a couple of years ago by a video exposé put together by investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas,” he said at a memorial event in Accra.

“Confidence, in the judicial system of any country, is necessary for a thriving democracy and economic growth, and as such, all of us, including members of the bar and the bench, have a duty to guard the integrity of the judicial process jealously.”
