President John Dramani Mahama has called on members of the Ghana Bar Association (GBA) to actively scrutinize and critique government policies, emphasizing that accountability is essential for national development.
His remarks came during a courtesy visit by the leader of the Ghana Bar Association, Efua Ghartey on Wednesday, March 26, 2025.
The President underscored the importance of constructive criticism, urging civil society organizations, including the GBA, to speak out when governance takes the wrong turn.
“You have been a strong advocate for the rule of law, respect for human rights, the constitution, and freedoms. I believe that the role you play is important for our society to progress.”
“So, as I have told civil societies, they must have the freedom to point out when things are not going in a way they should. Just like we say in our local parlance, ‘if a person is charting a path, he may not know that it is crooked.’”
“It is only onlookers who can be able to point it out to him. So, we will appreciate whatever feedback you give, and I believe that is how government should be,” Mahama stated.
The President’s remarks reaffirm his administration’s commitment to transparency and dialogue, reinforcing the critical role of legal and civil society institutions in governance.
