Justice Torkornu Saga: Ghana Has a Long History of Going After Judges

June 30th, 1982: The Day Ghana’s Judiciary Bled." In this powerful freestyle poem and cultural commentary, Nenebi Tony reflects on the brutal murder of three Ghanaian judges—Justice Koranteng-Addow, Justice Sarkodie, and Justice Agyapong—abducted and burned alive under the PNDC regime. He explores how that horror gave birth to Ghana’s 1992 Constitution, the foundation of the country's democratic resilience today. ⁠ We dive into the historic Tuffuor vs Attorney General case, Justice V.C.R.A.C. Crabbe’s legendary concurring opinion, and the courage it took to uphold judicial independence. Nenebi draws connections to today’s political climate and the ongoing suspension of Chief Justice Torkornoo. ⁠ This episode is a reminder: attacks on the judiciary have cost lives before. Ghana’s courts must remain our last defense. ⁠ 📌 New episodes every Wednesday (Cultural Commentary) and Sundays (Entertainment History Walkthroughs). 📚 Hosted by writer and poet Nenebi Tony, author of Everything That Happened and the People Who Made It. ⁠ ➡️ Subscribe, share your thoughts, and join the conversation on Ghana’s past, present, and future. #GhanaHistory #JudicialIndependence #June30th #PNDC #ChiefJusticeTorkornoo #TuffuorVAG #NenebiTony #GhanaPolitics #GhanaSupremeCourt #constitutionallaw Chapters 00:00 The Shadows of June 30th, 1982 01:44 The Evolution of Justice in Ghana 06:54 The Role of the 1992 Constitution 11:06 Defending Judicial Independence
