This appointment is in accordance with Article 89(2)(a)(i) which mandates the President to nominate a former Chief Justice as a member of the advisory body.

Mrs Wood would be joining the other members who were sworn into office on Monday 27 February without her since she was at the time a serving Chief Justice.

The Council of State is enjoined by Article 89 of Ghana’s 1992 Constitution to counsel the President in the performance of his functions.
