A political storm has erupted in Ghana following National Democratic Congress (NDC) spokesperson Sammy Gyamfi’s presentation of conflicting evidence to the Chief Justice and Supreme Court justices regarding a recent landmark ruling. The incident has sparked nationwide controversy and raised concerns about the credibility of the judiciary.

The Supreme Court had recently ruled that the government’s free Senior High School (SHS) policy was constitutional, a decision hailed as a triumph by the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) and widely viewed as a step forward for education.

Contradicting this, Gyamfi now claims to hold documentation that undermines the legal basis of the Court's decision. Although the content has not been revealed to the public, he suggests that the evidence reveals inconsistencies and legal oversights in the judgment.

This bold move has triggered widespread reactions, with many questioning whether his actions are an effort to expose institutional flaws or a politically motivated attempt to shake public trust in the judiciary.

The situation has intensified scrutiny of the judiciary’s independence. As Ghana’s highest court, the Supreme Court’s rulings are typically beyond dispute. However, Gyamfi’s intervention has cast a shadow over the institution’s neutrality and raised fears of political interference.
