Supreme Court fixes July 29 for judgment in OSP constitutionality case
The Supreme Court has fixed July 29, 2026, to deliver its judgment in a case challenging the constitutionality of the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP).
The case, Adamtey v. Attorney-General, was heard on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, with the Court taking final oral arguments before setting a date for judgment.
In a statement issued on Thursday, June 11, a group of 14 civil society organisations (CSOs) said they had earlier been granted permission by the Court to participate in the proceedings through an amicus brief.
The CSOs were represented at the hearing by lawyers Kizito Beyuo, Samson Lardy Anyenini, Clement Kojo Akapame and Oliver Barker-Vormawor.
The organisations expressed hope that the Court would uphold the arguments presented in support of the OSP and affirm the constitutionality of the law establishing the institution.
They noted that the Office of the Special Prosecutor was created through an Act of Parliament passed with broad national support and remains a key institution in Ghana's anti-corruption framework.
The CSOs said they would provide a further update following the delivery of the Court's judgment on July 29.
The statement was jointly signed by the Ghana Center for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana), Transparency International Ghana, Ghana Anti-Corruption Coalition (GACC), Democracy Hub LBG, STAR-Ghana Foundation, NORSAAC, Penplusbytes, Africa Centre for Energy Policy (ACEP), Odekro Parliamentary Monitoring Organization, A Rocha Ghana, Parliamentary Network Africa (PN Africa), IMANI Africa, One Ghana Movement and Africa Education Watch.
