Speaking Friday during the vetting of the Chief Justice nominee, Ms Justice Sophia Akuffo, Mr. Osei-Wusu said “on Tuesday I held a press conference and said Justice William Atuguba was retiring July this year. I have been corrected that actually his retirement is July next year.”

“It is not few weeks as I put it out. I apologize unreservedly for any discomfort that I have caused Mr. Justice Atuguba,” he admitted.

Justice William Atuguba is among host of Supreme Court judges who graced the vetting process of Chief Justice Nominee, Ms Justice Sophia Akuffo.
