No Prima Facie Case Against Justice Kulendi – Chief Justice Tells President

The Chief Justice has determined that a petition filed against Supreme Court Justice Yonny Kulendi does not disclose a prima facie case, effectively halting any further constitutional inquiry into the matter.

The clarification was contained in a statement issued by Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Minister of State in charge of Government Communications, on his official X (formerly Twitter) page.

According to the statement, the petition against Justice Kulendi was duly submitted to President John Dramani Mahama, who acted in line with Article 146 of the 1992 Constitution by forwarding it to the Chief Justice for assessment.

“Upon receipt of the petition, the President forwarded it to the Chief Justice to determine whether a prima facie case had been established,” the statement explained.

After reviewing the contents of the petition, the Chief Justice formally communicated her findings to the President, indicating that the allegations did not meet the constitutional threshold required to trigger further proceedings.

“The Chief Justice wrote to the President indicating that the petition did not disclose a prima facie case,” Mr. Kwakye Ofosu stated.
