LIFE HISTORY OF THE LATE
MR. JUSTICE KWADWO AGYEI AGYEPONG
‘’he will be remembered for his simple and unassuming manner, his prodigious capacity and love for judicial work and his abhorrence for violence. He was a committed father, husband and Judge.’’
We remember the Justices whose lives were tragically lost forty years ago. Their lives mattered as did their service to this country. May they keep resting in peace.
LIFE HISTORY OF THE LATE MRS. JUSTICE CECILIA AFRAN KORANTENG-ADDOW
“she will be remembered for her robust and alert mind, courage of conviction, impeccable integrity, keen sense of Justice and her firm control of her court. She was a deeply religious mother, wife and Judge.”
LIFE HISTORY OF THE LATE JUSTICE F. POKU SARKODEE
‘he will be remembered as the cool, calm and collected gentleman, the very embodiment of courtesy, hard work, being fair and firm. He exhibited judicial taciturnity and versatility. He was committed to his family, work and God.’
Legacy of the murdered judges.
Today apart from we celebrating these judges on the anniversary each year, another legacy which resulted from the gruesome murders is the police protection that is afforded judges and has been with them since the unfortunate incident. 8/
