Former Chief Justice, Justice Sophia Akuffo, has responded to Gabby Otchere-Darko’s comment that she “erred big time” in her basic understanding of the issues surrounding the Domestic Debt Exchange Programme (DDEP).
Gabby Otchere-Darko said in a tweet on Sunday that former Chief Justice Sophia Akuffo’s decision to picket the Finance Ministry with pensioner bondholders was made in “error.”
“For a former CJ [Chief Justice] to take up a noble cause such as she did but at such late hour when all was done and for all that publicity, she owed it to herself and her social standing to have understood the issues far better than what she exhibited last Friday. She is bigger than that,” Gabby tweeted.
This morning (Feb 14, 2023), the former Chief Justice joined the pensioner bondholders again to picket the Ministry of Finance and speaking to the press, she replied Gabby.
“Gabby Otchere-Darko can call me paranoid”.
“I don’t care. We are talking about people, we are talking about human beings, we are talking about people who have served this country, and have served well and have served hard, not easy service.”
“When you are not a member of government and you are calling yourself a member of government, so that is all I have got to say about this matter, that is why I am still sitting here.” Justice Sophia Akuffo said.
