A delegation led by a Supreme Court Judge, Justice Gabriel Pwamang visited the Paramount Chief of the Talensi Traditional Area Tongraan Naab Kugbilsong Nanlebegtang and Talensi Traditional Council.

The visit by the Supreme Court Judge and his delegation to the paramount Chief were centered on restoring the earlier relationship that exist between the traditional council and the Judicial service before the conviction of the two emissaries of the Overlord by High Court Judge Justice Alexander Graham.

The purpose of the visit was essentially to reconstruct what appears to be a wounded relationship between the Council and the Judiciary in the region.

Justice Gabriel Pwamang noted that the council was unhappy with the turn of events and described the incident at the Bolgatanga High Court as unfortunate. He indicated that the High Court Judge acted in a manner he deemed appropriate based on how the matters were presented before him. The Council however had reservations.

The Tongraan expressed delight and reiterated that the invitation to the Judge was absolutely in good faith, without malice. The Overlord appreciated the gesture of the Council and pledged his commitment and that of the council to continue to work in harmony with the Judiciary in the region. He offered the delegation a bull as a sign of appreciation as custom demands.
Other members of the delegation included High Court Judges, the President of the Ghana Bar Association, the Former Director General of Ghana Education Service Prof Amankwaa, and other senior staff of the Judicial Service.
