General News of Wednesday, 28 January 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comSupreme Court Justice Gabriel Scott Pwamang has reportedly rebuked and criticised social activist and private legal practitioner Oliver Barker-Vormawor over comments he made regarding a decision of the Kenyan High Court. In his social media commentary, Barker-Vormawor praised the Kenyan High Court for declaring the appointments unconstitutional and questioned Ghana’s judicial posture in similar matters. Kenyan High Courts are doing things that even our Supreme Court is afraid to imagine. According to Barker-Vormawor, the Kenyan court held that executive authority must be exercised within constitutional limits, including transparency, merit-based recruitment, fiscal responsibility, and public oversight. By creating and filling these offices outside the established public service framework, the executive acted unlawfully.
