Godfred Dame also advocated for the enhancement of justice systems across African nations to prioritize and safeguard human rights.

“There must also be an effective justice system that will take care of violations of human rights. We should have a justice system that will clearly ensure that all elements of the rule of law will be protected and that whenever violations occur, they are punished,” the Attorney General added.
