Dated March 17, 2025, the petition was addressed to Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Sackey Torkornoo, with copies sent to the president, the Minister of Justice and Attorney General, the Judicial Council, the Speaker of Parliament, and key figures from Teshie, including Numo Badu Odaano Odiapenser I and Osabu-Ayiku Wulomo.
