Professor Kwaku Asare has challenged the constitutional basis of a lawsuit filed by former Education Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah over the Chief Justice’s decision to allow selected criminal trials to continue during the legal vacation. Prof Asare, popularly known as Kwaku Azar, questioned whether the Chief Justice’s directive to selected judges to sit during the vacation amounts to a violation of constitutional rights, as alleged by Mr Oppong Nkrumah. Mr Oppong Nkrumah has invoked the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court in Writ No. J1/29/2026, seeking declarations that the Chief Justice’s warrants are unconstitutional.
