BTWSC Co-ordinator Sworn In As Notary Public In Ghana
BTWSC co-ordinator Ms Serwah adds notary public to her legal resume
On Feb. 11 2010, Ms Serwah joined her learned friends back home, as fifty Ghanaian lawyers were sworn in as the latest batch of new notaries public*. The ceremony, which took place at the Chief Justice Court in the capital city Accra, was the first in three years.
Before the formal presentation of the certificates, Supreme Court Judge His Lordship Justice WA Atuguba, standing in for Chief Justice Georgina Wood, reminded the new notaries public of the high level of trust and integrity expected of them in discharging their duties.
A notary public must have at least ten years experience as a practising lawyer, and must be of high moral character and proven integrity. His or her duties include drafting and notarising documents, such as contracts, which are recognised in international courts (for more information, please see Wiki definition definition and article from Crusading Guide newspaper below).
*A notary public (or notary or public notary) is a public officer constituted by law to serve the public in non-contentious matters usually concerned with estates, deeds, powers-of-attorney, and foreign and international business. A notary's main functions are to administer oaths and affirmations, take affidavits and statutory declarations, witness and authenticate the execution of certain classes of documents, take acknowledgments of deeds and other conveyances, protest notes and bills of exchange, provide notice of foreign drafts, prepare marine protests in cases of damage, provide exemplifications and notarial copies, and perform certain other official acts depending on the jurisdiction. Any such act is known as a notarisation.
