Judges divided as to go on strike or not

Judges and Magistrates at the various courts in the country, at the moment, are divided as to whether to go on strike or not.

This was made known when the President of Association of Magistrates and Judges, Justice Victor Ofoi told journalists.

‘So we are divided. Seriously divided’, he said.

He stated that they will be meeting with the various Regional Executives in Accra on the 6th of July, 2018 to take a decision.

Justice Victor Ofoi also said retired judges have been convincing them not to go on strike so as to maintain the dignity they left behind.

’90 % of the judges we have today are very young’ and according to him ‘it’s very difficult to control them’.
Justice Ofoi also indicated they cannot stay quiet if they are being cheated.
