Sir Kobina Arku Korsah JSC (3 April 1894 – 25 January 1967)[1] was the first Chief Justice of Ghana (then the Gold Coast) in 1956.

[6][7][8] Korsah was one of the 20 founding members of the Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1959.

At the end of that trial, three of the accused were found not guilty and this displeased the Nkrumah government.

Nkrumah sacked Sir Arku as Chief Justice in December 1963 unconstitutionally.

Their five children were: Diana (1924- ), Evangeline Mabel (1926-2013), Roger Kweku Andoh (1927-2017), Annie Barbara Gyaanuah (1931- ) and Kate Ethel Esi Amanuah (1935-2013).
