"Her [Justice Wood] career has been extraordinary, and I pay warm tribute to her distinguished service to our nation, and wish her a well-earned retirement, even though her public service will not be over as her place on the Council of State awaits her," said Akufo-Addo.
Akufo-Addo said he has no doubt Justice Akuffo will be a worthy successor to Chief Justice Wood and uphold jealously the independence of the Judiciary.
"I expect discipline, fairness, integrity and the continuing modernisation of judicial activities to be the hallmarks of her tenure as Chief Justice, if she is so endorsed by the constitutional bodies," he said.
