  Kofi Akpalu, you are contesting to be president. Did you read the Article 99 you have been alleged to have quoted? Where did the constitution state that it is only the high court that declares a vacant parliamentary seat? You are exhibiting your ignorance if indeed you said that.

  Lol. U see the ignorance of followers like u? Afenyo thinks he is the only one who went to law school or to put it right, he thinks he started the ghana law school and understands the law more than any other Ghanaian. Unfortunately, the annex of his part head quarters, the supreme Court resonated with his emotional move without a single thought about the law. The judiciary is creating a dangerous and poisonous society for Ghanaians.

  I find this development interesting. I'm not familiar with the mentioned article. However, my question is, with the speaker's declaration, is the current number of parliamentarians reduced by 4 or not? The current parliament is different from the one before, so also the next one which the 4 parliamentarians, if they win their seats, sit as independents. I'm sorry to say, either I'm confused, or the current constitution has this issue not well written out.

  It is indeed interesting and I hope the judges allow the politicians to argue and resolve this conflict. It would be a lesson to all of us. To me as a layman it sounds clear that since the 4 MPs have registered to go independent, they automatically forfeit their sits as MPs for their various parties. This reduces the NPP sits by 4 allowing the NDC to claim majority. It sounds simple and I am unsure why they are fighting on this issue. The NPP’s own constitution sacks them as members automatically when they defect. Let’s see how they resolve this issue.

  The Speaker of parliament did the right call. The portion of the constitution the Speaker utilized to announce the vacancy needs no interpretation. The NPP are either confused or are pretending to be confused because they are certain that Unanimous FC will rule in their favor. As for Unanimous FC, they should continue with this kind of bias and favoritism. They should remember that it is fora reason that history is documented. Sometimes history repeats itself.

  This is the first time Kofi Akpaloo has spoken dispassionately and has swam against the tide of not supporting the monumentally failed , wayward and corrupt Akuffo Addo and Bawuliar's government. The NPP thinks we are dumb and imbeciles but their own chickens have come home to roost. I implore all well- meaning Ghanaians to vote massively against the despotic, corrupt and tyrannic Akuffo Addo and Bawuliar's government in the 7th December, 2024 general elections!

  For the first time, Kofi Akpaloo has been honest. Don't deviate from the path, keep being on the path of truth and stop allowing yourself to be used as a pawn in the hand of the ruling government.

  He hasn't been honest holistically and i know a piffle like Kofi Akpaloo can't be honest totally. In all what he said he ended up by saying but article 99 says its only the high court that can declare a parliamentary seat vacant,that's ridiculous isn't it? So why did he say the speaker was right in the first place? The npp in him will not allow him to think 360 degrees.

  Now that the Supreme Court has spoken, it is clear Bagbin did serious wrong not only to the 4 MPs but also to the people they represent in parliament over decisions the MPs had made which only affects the next parliament. He had no business fast-forwarding to the current parliament.
