PETER AMEWU IS OUR FUTURE VICE PRESIDENT AFTER NAPO!!!!!!!!!
MAHAMA IS A LOOSE TALKER!! TO ALL GHANAIANS, HE SAID WE HAVE A SHORT MEMORY!! HE HAS INSULTED ALMOST EVERY TRIBE IN THIS COUNTRY. ON A SERIOUS NOTE, LET US BE TRUTHFUL TO OURSELVES. IS IT FAIR TO TAG A TRIBE AS SAKAWA????? I KNOW THE, AKYEMS, WILL PUNISH MAHAMA. ASHANTIS WILL NEVER FORGET WHAT HE SAID ABOUT THEM. HE HAS OF LATE ATTACKED EWES, BONO’S AND AS FOR GAS, HE DID NOT HIDE ANYTHING. MAHAMA WAS LOUD AND CLEAR TAUNTING THE GAS WITH KENKEY & SHITO. WE ARE ALSO AWARE, MAHAMA RECENTLY ATTACKED THE CHIEFS OF THIS COUNTRY, PASTORS AND IMAMS TOO FOR THEIR SUPPORT FOR BAWUMIA. WHY??
WHAT AT ALL DID MAHAMA LEAVE BEHIND AT THE JUBILEE HOUSE???? EIGHT YEARS IN GOVERNMENT HE COULD NOT DO ANYTHING. WHAT, THEN, CAN MAHAMA DO IN 4 YEARS?? HE ONCE SAID, THAT, NO GOVERNMENT CAN DO ANYTHING MEANINGFUL IN 4 YEARS. MAHAMA HAS STAYED IN OPPOSITION FOR 8 YEARS AND COULD NOT COME OUT WITH ANY POLICY WHICH COULD HELP THE MASSES. 24HR HOOK UP (ASHAWO) WITH FREE HEALTHCARE ATTACHED!!! AKOKOBUO, NKOKO NKETEKE/PRAKO!! MORTUARY/OKADA!! ICE CREAM, CHOCOLATE AND PIZZA FOR THE YOUTH!! HWE!! MAHAMA & NDC!! YENYE NKWASEAFO WO GHANA HA OH!!!!
*******AUTHOR: Afro Moses———-
With NDC nkukobuo nketenkete,and the Ewes eat dirty Akpene and okra soup and the Ga's don't need anything only their kenkey shito and kena and the ungrateful Ashanti even when he constructed gold roads for them they did not appreciate. Then Ghanaians must be fools to vote for NDC to come and destroy their free SHS and collapse allowance and abandon unfinished projects.

Trust me Errortorial, they didn't go there to seek any interpretation, it was an already premeditated something, they knew very well that this was going to be the outcome after their members went independent, so they had already planned what they would do if Bagbin declared their seats vacant and made them the minority, So they just went to their court for their chief justice who also already knew what she was supposed to do,to also abuse her power and aid them do the nonsense they did.

#Hades or whatever you alias yourself, the No retired supreme court judge said it was wrong for the NPP to injunct the speaker of parliament from declaring the NPP Mps and an NDC MP (now all former) from being disqualified from being in parliament, all he said that they should have gone to the high court first, but acknowledged in the end that the supreme court has jurisdiction over all matters in the country, since all the courts are under it. Read before you go about quoting people wrongly. NDC followers don't read.

Class one pupils can read articles 97(g) and (h) with no difficulties with comprehension. Their actions are clear and meant to disturb the peace of Ghana. I'm glad the ndc stood their ground till they run away from parliament. After all, who suffers? Government businesses suffer at the expense of their stupidity.

Thank you Adanko. Pratt is a major part of misinformation and disinformation. He just reads without any understanding. Kwasiabi ba. Do you think law is learnt on the street and in chop bars. Take no notice of this stomach politician. Now listen, the reason why matters are referred to the courts is when there are competing interpretations. And this happens in every jurisdiction. In Ghana there too many ignorant idiots like Pratt and IGNORANT NDC MEMBERS.

Dunces? Victor Gbeho once contested as an independent candidate when he was still an MP on the ticket of NDC. Why was he not booted out of the Parliament? Hon. Bawa contested an election on the ticket of the NPP at the time he was a sitting independent MP. Why was he not booted out? Same logic for Michael Nyaunu. Why do the NDC MP contesting as an independent still part of the minority caucus? You so called veterans close your eyes to the truth and that explains why we ain’t moving forward as a nation.

Let's all put Ghana first in everything that we do including the positions we hold in the country. If the supreme court was competent enough to ask parliament to stay execution, based on the exigency of the matter then it ought to follow with the judgement as well. Why defer the judgement or reasons?

Internal npp elections for presidential candidates was followed by sacking of those party members like Alan Cash, because he went independent. The party constitution works, but the 1992 constitution shall not work the same way??? Unbelievable. The parliament is supposed to be independent from any other institution, Jubilori House or any Court. What kind of Democracy is that? Let the Parliament manage themselves on their own. Court is less powerful, cause they are all employed by one person. That's no Democracy.

What a foolish rodent ! The whole article 97(1) talks about the current tenure of an MP . Clauses G and H are clearly ,as Bagbin pointed out, to prevent cross carpeting or what other jurisdictions call floor crossing. Because legislative work resolves around committees constituted on Majority and Minority caucuses , an MP for party A is barred from switching sides to party B in order to make Parliamentary work stable. Also it is to protect the mandate of the constituents , if you are elected to represent Party A by your constituency, u can’t betray that mandate by switching sides while in Parliament . Now if an MP decides to contest in a future elections on a different ticket , how does that affect Parliamentary work or stability? How does that betray the current mandate ? Is he not going to seek validation from the constituents anyway? Ghana for agyimi too much!

They are therefore, from the very moment when they file as independent candidates, no longer members of the party and as such, cannot continue to represent the party in parliament.
Bagbin is right in declaring the seats vacant.

Mr Kwasi Pratt pls you are not Ghana's repository of knowledge. Does that law make sense to you? And is it constitutional? That someone who has been nominated by his constituents to represent them for four years, a Speaker who is not a constituent of the MP should terminate his appointment on grounds that after the four years contract, he will seek their mandate again but on another ticket other than the current ticket? I think the constitutionality of that bogus law is what the Supreme Court must seek.

Emom, some elements identifying with the NPP can be eccentric. If don't understand politics don't join active politics. Why should you conduct yourself with abomination of the sort and you see nothing wrong? In politics you either win or lose, and when the ELECTORATES decide otherwise you don't have to resort to doing things in a manner that will bring the image of the party into disrepute. So with ALL SERIOUSNESS, can such characters ever dream of coming back to the party in their lifetime again? The fact that you find yourself in the midst of the tribes who are sympathizers of the party doesn't mean you own it or everybody. Nobody owes you for anything. So they can choose to go independent or even join to vote against their own party's choice of speaker of parliament to engage in acts which causes the vast majority of the citizens to suffer, it's your own cup of tea. A vast majority of the party members will kick against it in future when you ever attempt to join it again. On that note, the party should in future vet candidates with good character and gravitas to vie for positions and elections on the ticket of the party. Ghanaians will go through testing times, but that will also pass. God is watching.

Those MPs going independent took a bad cue from Alan Kyeremanteng. They're all traitors only guided by their selfish motives.

Guess you just pronounced yourself as a dunce Mr Moron Pratt!! So which part of the constitution is not written clearly by your non-legal mind!! There is a reason the SC exits!! Allow them to work pls!! There is something called the spirit and letter of the Constitution. You and your NDC forks are following the letter of the constitution…which is literal but there is more to it…it’s the called the spirit…the original intent that is…because not everything can be captured in the constitution the spirit points to the direction of the intent or the truth. So in this particular instant the spirit is not to have MPs ride on parties or as independent and then later abandon them. Think calmly and deeply Mr Moron Pratt!!

It seems he does not understand what he quoted. All the candidates are still on the tickets of the parties that sent them to parliament. They only plan to change party affiliations in the future. Moreover, it is clear from the 1992 Constitution that the Speaker has no legal right to dismiss, remove, or prevent any MP from exercising his or her political assignments.

He is very right. There's no need for any interpretation since what ever is written under Article 97 (g) and (h) is crystal clear. It's only nitwits who failed who English Language that would seek interpretation. When the law favours them they glee over it. When the same law affects them they run to seek its interpretation. Mr. Pratt i admire your candour and objectivity.

Kwesi Pratt was supporting the invasion of Israel by Hamas on Oct 7th claiming Israel was occupying Palestinian lands by deliberately playing down the intransigence of Hamas to accept the right of Israel to live under the Camp David and Oslo accords all rejected by the Arabs. He aslo failed to acknowledge that the whole land including Israel is referred at various times as land of Canaan, land of Judea, Palestine, Isreal Setc. See the number of people killed. If no parliamentary bi election can be held two months to an election why unilaterally declare the seat vacant without a hearing from the minority and majority parliamentary leadership. Smacking of a plot.
