Common sense will tell the MPs they were elected for a certain function of the Government or may I say the nation let them fulfil their duties while they wait for the verdict of the SC in the so called petition by their presidential candidate.taking into cognizance that President Mahama is a legimate president sworn in by the same Supreme chief justice of Ghana.What kind of interpretation do they need to have in order to know that ,tax payers money is being wasted at their expense.I respect Sam Okudzeto but in this regard it's just politics as usaul.

Has it occured to you that maybe they are just doing their work by boycotting the president? Their consttuencies, by voting them to be MPs should indicate to you that the do not want NDC in power in the first place. Understand the basis of their argument. They are saying the EC ABUSED their power in declearing NDC the winner. Now they want to test their accusation in court and hope the court find in their favor. Until the court agrees/disagree with them...we see this more often. If anything the court needs to wrap up this judgment quickly to ensure the interest of the nation is being carried out.

It is sad that Ghana's legislature is made up of many who call themselves Honourables but do no even familiarise themselves with the Standing Orders of the House. It's only the House that can order its members as far as the conduct of business in the House is concerned. No court in the land, including the Supreme Court can order, compel, coerce or force a member to participate in the business of the House.
Sometimes, some of these ignorant politicians make mockery of democracy in Ghana. Taking such a matter to the Supreme Court is not only precious waste of judicial time but a de-service to democracy and the rule of law. Those who plan to pursue such an exercise in futility should use the time to study the Standing Orders of the House.

The issue is not whether the MPs should be compelled to participate in some proceedings in the House.
The issue is whether an MP represents only his party voters to the exclusion of the concerns of all othe voters in his constituency. And whether he or she act in the interest of his constituency or blindly tow the party line and be dictated to by party interests which have nothing to do with the business to be conducted in the House.
Why should an MP think that turning up for the kebabs is more of a Parliamentary duty than attending an address in the House?
Given that they boycotted the event, how is the opposition going to respond? Are they going to use the auspices of the House or are they going to conduct a press conference outside the House? This is gross derection of duty unprecedent in our national affairs.

"The senior legal practitioner said it important to recognise that just as ordinary citizens have a right to protest and do get police protection when they are protesting, the NPP MPs were also entitled to protest if the reasonably believed their grievances before the Supreme Court to be genuine." The old man has lost his bearings in this case. What grievances have NPP MPs presented to the Supreme Court? Are we not being told that the case before the Supreme Court was one brought by three individuals and not by the NPP or its MPs? Or was it a ploy to prevent the NDC from joining? In any case if the NPP MPs have presented the case before the Supreme Court, what right of demonstration do they still have? Since the Court is seized with the matter, it is very reprehensible and pretentious for the MPs to continue to demonstrate for what else no one can tell. Or is it also that they have no trust in the Court? Then why did they send the case there? You cannot defend the indefencible. Old man, this time you have goofed badly.

If our constitution accepts that an MP represents the entirety of his constituency and not only those who voted for him; then it is a gross dereliction of duty for an MP do decide to selectively boycott some Parliamentary proceedings but turn up for the kebabs.

Labour Laws permit strikes for legitimate reasons. Teachers can go on strike to strenghten their negotiation stance or wage negotiations.
The NPP MPs have no such legitimate reason for their stupid actions. The matter is before the Supreme Court. The Law says the President is legitmate until the Supreme Court decides otherwise. The NPP MPs have decided that this law does not apply to them. If legislators flout the law, who then should obey the law. They boycott proceedings but turn up for kebabs.

We follow precedents both at home and abroad because it is either the law because of its persuasive authority.You ask if valco workers or teachers are on strike do you take the workers to court?The answer is yes if it breaches the labour law or the constitution the court can declare their act as illegal and sanctions can be applied.It is a standard occurrence in all major countries and we are no exception.Worker rights have been defined by law and therefore you can not just get up and go on strike.
The plaintiffs in this case are seeking the interpretation of the sc as to whether by the actions of the npp mps,the mandate of their constituents have not been breached and if so what will be the appropriate sanction.These are legitimate questions.Are the mps representing their constituent or their party.These are matters bordering on the constitution and it is the duty of the sc to clarify the position.
Perhaps we need a pressure grump to advocate for amendment to the constitution to recall lazy and ineffective mps and let their constituents decide whether to retain them or not.If they know there is a consequence for incompetence then they will take their parliamentary duties more seriously.

There are 3 arms of government and they act completely independent of each other, and the executive/legislature has no business ordering one arm to acquiesce to demands from another. Time and again, the NDC has demonstrated a very strong misunderstanding of the issues about governance and democracy, which is not overly surprising judging from their antecedents. The NDC gov't under Pres.Mahama has lost a lot of credibility as a result of these election irregularities, which gave him undue advantage in the elections. Those irregularities cannot be wished away by gov't communication machinery, to create the impression that, the NPP is intransigent and seeking to divide the country by their boycotts et al, which are all legitimate processes, to register one's disagreement of an act which has sought to make one gain an upper hand in a process, which shouldn't have been the case. Article 64(2) however, seeks to make things a bit easier on the conscience of the masses and i would rather, Pres. Mahama takes full advantage of that clause, should re-elections be called for, and stop his communicators from seeking to turn the heat on the NPP for obvious shortcomings of the system, which are untenable and needs to be addressed in the interest of our democracy and also for good governance.

All these arms of state like you rightly said are public bodies and therefore subject to judicial review if a relief is sought.It is the judiciary which is the institution or arm of state charged with the mandate to overseer the conduct of these administrative organs so that they don't exceed their administrative authority.So for example, the court could question a minister's decision if the court decides that they have exceeded their administrative authority.When the court decides that the executive decision is ultra vires,then that decision become null and void,in effect the judiciary or the court has the authority to order any of the arms of state if they go beyond their legal authority as specified under the constitution.That is why it possible that the court could annul the decision of the EC though the chances are virtually nil in the light of the evidence before us.If you exceed your constitutional authority no matter what the arm of state,the court has the authority to ensure that you do the right.No arm of state is above the law.

Conjoined twins walk into a Bar in Fairbanks Alaska USA, and park themselves on a bar stool. One of them says to the barkeeper, 'Don't mind us, we're joined at the hip. I'm Willam, he's Wilson. Two Budweiser beers, please'.
The barkeeper, feeling slightly awkward, tries to make polite conversation while pouring the beers. 'Been on holiday yet, lads?'
'Off to Ghana next month,' says William. 'We go to Ghana every year and hire a car and drive for miles, don't we, Wilson?'
Wilson agrees.
'Ah, Ghana!' says the barkeeper. 'Wonderful country... the history, the beer, the culture...'
'Nah, we don't like that Ghana crap,' says William. ' Fufu,Palm soup & Club beer, that's us, eh Wilson? And we can't stand some Ghanaian's - they're so arrogant and rude and cannot make their mind on elections that's over.
'So why keep going to Ghana?' asks the barkeeper.
