Chief Justice’ Georgina Theodora Wood was missed in parliament during President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s first State of The Nation Address, Tuesday.
In her absence, Supreme Court judge Justice William Anaam Atuguba was acknowledged by the Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon Aaron Mike Oquaye as the acting ‘Chief Justice’.
Her Ladyship Wood is said to be in Cairo, Egypt, attending the Conference of Chief Justices – so therefore Justice Atuguba is acting in her absent.
Justice Atuguba was the President of the nine-member panel that adjudicated the landmark 2012 election petition, which was eventually dismissed much to the chagrin of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, one of the three petitioners then.

Enjoy it while it lasts cos u will never be appointed if justice when cj retires. Ndc judge
Ahhhhh.....what !!! Then we can't jail these ***barred word***...nana addo look sharp
Atuguba will also not see Canaan as he predicted for others.It is in the Good Book that do unto others the things that you want others to do unto you. One thing I found in the ndc is,they want to do bad to Ghanaians but when the same is done to them they call it witch haunting. They seized personal cars of some leaders of the NPP and their appointees in 2009 when they assumed power,when they were returned the same fate they did to others 8 years ago they are calling for demonstration such are the group of evils Ghanaians are dealing with. The law of Karma you throw a ball against a wall it bounces back to you but ndc don't want it that way when it comes to them. The law of Moses in the Bible when somebody hit you give it back the hard way but ndc understanding is when ndc hit you don't ever hit them back treat them with kids gloves. I wish the day Ghana will get a woman as president and she will think like me who wouldn't tolerate any of those nons*nse. You want peace I will give you peace and we love in harmony but if you want war we fight till there is no breath anymore for both of us,so we shall smoke the peace pipe and decree never again. You do me I do you and that is the only language that ndc understand and that is the only language that will lead to peace and the decree to bound it. Ndc doesn't know and doesn't understand let go,they take it as weakness but not civil and peace so will continue with their barbaric actions,killing and maiming innocent Ghanaians. You let them taste the same fate to know how painful and sad that is then after SHALOM. YES' Margaret Thatcher IRON LADY.I just can't take their h*te and nons*nse.
what is all this?every thing should favor the npp.what ***barred word*** is that?educated illiterates.
ANYTHING AGAINST THE NPP IS A CRIME OR SIN BUT IF IT IS IN THEIR FAVOUR, IT IS PERFECT. WHAT CRIME DID JUSTICE ATUGUBA COMMIT BY DISMISSING A USSLESS SENSELESSS CASE FILED BY THE NPP. SHOULD EVERYTHING COME TO YOUR SIDE? GHANA IS IN A SERIOUS TROUBLE UNDER NPP. JUSTICE ATUGUBA GOD KNOWS YOUR HEART.
Her Ladyship, Auntie Georgina, please hurry up and return to your bench. May God protect you while you are on travel. Return safely!!
He can only be acting. When the CJ retires later this year another person will be appointed. This man cannot be CJ. Next time when u get position use it capriciously
I still don't understand why some people or the npp thinks justice Atuguba was not truthful, is it because he is from the north? In any case they were 9 justices on the bench how many ruled in fervour of npp? anything against npp wrong or stealing but if it is in fervour then it is correct we don't live in a country like that. Please let's stop the double standard.
ATUGUBA DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE THE CHIEF JUSTICE BECAUSE HE IS NOT TRUTHFULL AND TRUSTWORTHY.HIS JUDGEMENT ON THE ELECTION PETITION MADE GHANA A LAUGHING STOCK AROUND THE WORLD.HE IS A PERSONAL NON GRATA.HE IS PART OF THE EVIL SYNDICATE WHO THOUGHT NANA COULDN'T BE PRESIDENT FORGETTING THAT THEY ARE NOT GOD.
