A Justice of the Supreme Court, Justice Yonny Kulendi, says judges have no problem with the media criticising their decisions, but those criticisms must be constructive and devoid of insult and personality attacks.

“As trustees of the people’s power of justice, we are willing to be criticised. Criticise us as violently as you can, but for Christ -sake, don’t insult us, don’t beret us , don’t speak hatred and don’t malign us,” he said.

He said journalists and judges have similar responsibilities of serving the people of Ghana, and therefore those responsibilities must be discharged in the supreme interest of the country.

The media bodies were the NMC, GJA, PRINPAG and GIBA represented by their respective heads.

Also present at the press conference was the President the Ghana Bar Association, Mr Tony Forson.

The press conference was to remind the media about the need to be circumspect in its reportage after tomorrow’s judgement of the 2020 presidential election petition.

It was also on the back of the hells of a recent bad between the Judicial Service and the media which lead to statements and counter statements from the two sides.
