A new special telephone poll conducted by Global InfoAnalytics reveals that 63% of Ghanaian voters strongly support creating special tribunals. The survey, conducted between July 15 and July 24, 2026, shows that only 19% of respondents opposed the move, while 17% held no opinion.
These findings show that citizens desperately want faster, accessible legal remedies to resolve local disputes without spending years waiting in crowded courtrooms.
Global InfoAnalytics Executive Director Mussa Dankwah revealed that support cuts across major political lines. Supporters of the governing National Democratic Congress, floating voters, and smaller political parties all recorded strong majority backing for the new legal frameworks.
While voters in the Ashanti Region showed clear majority approval, supporters of the New Patriotic Party supported the initiative with a solid plurality. Even in the Ahafo and Bono regions where opinions varied, more voters favored establishing tribunals than those who opposed them.
The polling results come right as Parliament passes the Tribunals Bill 2026, which currently awaits final presidential assent. Supporters emphasize that localized tribunals will strengthen public access to justice, clear massive court backlogs, and deliver quick resolutions for everyday citizens.
Although some critics raise questions about judicial procedures, most Ghanaians recognize the practical benefit of decentralizing justice. Bringing modern, structured tribunals into local communities ensures every citizen receives fair, timely legal support without unnecessary delay.
