He further revealed that the Chief Justice is at loggerheads with one of her staff because they have different political views.

He made all these comments when he appeared on the ‘Pampaso’ political show on June 24, together with Ako Gunn and Alistair Nelson.

Meanwhile, the two other panellists and the host of the show have been found guilty of contempt and handed a four-month jail term by the Supreme court.
