President John Mahama has reiterated the commitment of his administration to enhancing Ghana’s legal system in order to guarantee equity, impartiality, and fairness for all.
Speaking during the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission Ghana’s 92nd Jalsa Salana at Gomoa Pomadze in Winneba, in the Central region, he emphasized the importance of justice for the advancement of the country.
“Justice and peace are the bedrock of our national aspirations, and as the Holy Quran reminds us, we are called to uphold justice even against ourselves,” Mahama stated.
“Justice must always not only be done but must be seen to be done and must be felt by all. Justice is a moral compass that must guide our every decision, every law, and every interaction in our nation.”
The president promised that his government would address systematic injustices in the legal system and seek to increase judicial independence. He gave Ghanaians the assurance that everyone will be treated fairly and with dignity under the law, regardless of background or status.
“To this end, the new NDC administration is resolutely committed to strengthening our justice system. To achieve this, we must move the stalled constitutional review process forward,” he said.
“I will soon establish a committee to plan a National Constitutional Review Validation Conference, allowing us to build broad consensus on the proposed constitutional amendments.”
He hopes to create a country where justice is not only a concept but a lived reality for all citizens by giving constitutional amendments top priority and tackling systemic injustices.
