The Chief Justice, Kwesi Anin Yeboah, has urged the newly elected executives of the Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (JUSAG) to put the interest of the people they are elected to serve first at all times.
He assured the new leadership that his office would continue to accord the new leadership of JUSAG all the necessary support they need to ensure that their term in office is a success.
The CJ made the remarks during the swearing-in of new JUSAG executives, following the expiration of Mr Alex Nartey’s two terms.
For the next four years, JUSAG’s new executives are Samuel Afotey Otu, president, Samuel Lartey, vice president, Brother Abdulai Yakubu, general secretary, Joyce Assan, deputy general secretary, Brother Owusu Kankam, treasurer, and Hannah Boachie, women’s commissioner.
In his farewell message, JUSAG’s outgoing president, Mr Alex Nartey, highlighted some of his administration’s accomplishments, such as allowing staff to pursue higher education without leaving the service.
He also stated that during his two terms (2014-2022), he witnessed several developments that improved the lot of judicial service workers.
During his tenure, he said, they negotiated judicial service workers out of the single spin salary structure and re-instituted the service’s policy of study leave, which resulted in about 50 judicial service employees studying law becoming lawyers.
The new president of JUSAG, Samuel Afotey Otu, in his statement after the swearing-in ceremony, said “The good of JUSAG depends on every little contribution from each and every one of us. Yes, we are the leaders, but we need everyone’s cooperation to be able to lead well. Every thought, suggestion and experience are all welcome to make JUSAG more resilient and beneficial to all.”
