Judicial Service honours former Chief Justices, retired judges at awards night

The Judicial Service of Ghana honoured former Chief Justices, retired Justices of the Superior Courts, and other distinguished members of the Judiciary at a Dinner and Awards Night held at the Labadi Beach Hotel on 30 July 2026. This event was part of activities marking the 150th anniversary of the Supreme Court. The Chief Justice, Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonni, expressed appreciation to the award recipients, judges, and staff, stating, "Your service has enriched this institution. Your example has inspired those who follow, and your legacy will live on, not only in the law reports, but also in the lives of the countless Ghanaians whose confidence in justice was strengthened because you answered the call to serve."

Justice Baffoe-Bonni also paid tribute to judicial officers and staff whose efforts often go unnoticed, acknowledging their invaluable role in ensuring the effective administration of justice. He added, "To all who serve in those quiet places, often without recognition, we say this evening: we see you, we appreciate you and we thank you." The Chairman of the Supreme Court @150 Anniversary Planning Committee, Justice Richard Frimpong, also thanked stakeholders.
