Professor Kwaku Agyemang Prempeh has advised the Supreme Court to throw out legal challenges concerning presidential third term bids. He stated that the current suits do not present a valid case for the court to hear.
The professor argues that there is no actual dispute for the judiciary to resolve. His position is that the legal arguments presented do not warrant judicial intervention.
This stance suggests a belief that the matters raised are not legally justiciable. The Supreme Court's role is to interpret laws and settle legal disputes.
Professor Prempeh’s call implies that the plaintiffs have not established a sufficient legal basis for their claims. He is urging for the cases to be dismissed without a full hearing.
The professor’s comments were made following the filing of suits seeking to prevent any attempts at a third presidential term. These legal actions have generated significant public discussion.
The outcome of such legal challenges could have important implications for Ghana’s constitutional governance and presidential term limits.
