When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

"Justice must be seen to be done", "justice delayed is justice denied".

Ghana is not an isolated Island, it is part and parcel of the this world. In fact, we copied our justice system from the British far away from the African continent.

12 or 13 years ago, we all watched and followed the court proceedings of the Bush-Algore election fraud case in the US. The Kenyans have done the same and some people in Ghana watched and followed the proceedings live. Why are the NDC supporters vehemently against anything called transparency?

But Kenyans have helped in restraining the NDC. Otherwise, they would have continued interfering in the case with frivolous arguments and delay the case until the end of the presidential term.

Name,how are u. I hope ur prediction comes true. But i disagree with on the reason u gave against live bradcast,indeed the ldea to telecast the trial live is not to suggest that the petitioners have no trus in the supreme court, but to give viewers the opportunity to listern to the arguments and see things for themselves, rather than relying on some of ur colleagues who msreport from the proceedings.

Mr pollster,it is not about how the petitioners or the respondents reaction to the outcome of the landmark case but the millions of illiterate followers of both parties especially the "you know what i mean's"reaction,that is a potential worrisome,and therefore the TV
coverage will be very much helpful,and i believe that is why Kenya is quiet after the verdict,don,t you think so?

This is it. Ignorant ppeople like you are the ones who raise concerns about the future of Ghana. Fact is the NPP have presented facts in court. The NDC Mafia did not reckon with the reality of exissting records for analysis. This is the crust of the matter. The ignoramus in Ghana think it is just about Akuffo Addo, they forget that it is more abt the vote stealing which has robbed Ghanaians of a credible choice for govrenance.

I am in the strong believe that Ghanaian should make a shift by giving the mandates to Godly man who might have stay and work outside Ghana, educated to be elected to lead our beloved country.
If really John Mahama and his NDC won the election then Ghana need serious BIG "DELEVERANCE". Let's then plead for GOD's mercy and grace.

After declaring Mahama the undisputed winner the Courts will then try Akuffo Addo on the stolen law qualifications the lies and the murder of the poor lawyer WA Akuffo Addo.

Ben Epson is using every means possible to dissuade readers from televising the electoral case at the Supreme Court for reasons best known to himself. After all he was the privileged journalist who knew to a very high accuracy the percentage of votes the NDC were to win just before the Dec 7, 8 elections of 2012 when popular and credible surveys proved he was a paid NDC mis informer. Gone are the days of PNDC, NDC and the 8 years (1992-2000) of 'legitimate" govt under Rawlings when he was a regular attendant at the numerous jails. Now he finds the same people as friends avenues to make easy money. Wait till you fall out with them again just like Kwesi Pratt and you will be worse. If you critically analyse the biased conduct of the security forces, the BNI, the National Security advisers etc regarding violence before elections, supposed arrests of NDC functionaries, breaking ins of NPP offices to remove evidence, Gloria Akuffo's office , pink sheets signatures and the like, you will come out with the conclusion that the opposition has NO CONFIDENCE in the state institutions. Ben, if there is nothing to HIDE from Ghanaians and the outside world then why can't we televise the proceedings from the Supreme Court? When it is on record that Mahama made himself referee player by announcing that people should be allowed to vote WITHOUT BIOMETRIC verification during the elections! When Mahama has been seen receiving Supreme Court judges in two's at the Peduase Presidential lodge whilst there is a case for him to answer there! When an NDC organised groups (more IDIOTS) can file petitions to join the case. When a known 'financier" of the NDC is used as a front to siphon public funds under the eagle eyes of now rewarded (deputy speaker and chairman of vetting/appointment committee) Barton Oduro. I cannot repose that kind of confidence in the courts.

How does a live telecast of the Supreme court hearing compromise its credibility?It is a strange kind of logic and argument people like Ephson keep espousing. Any hidden agendas? What is the fear?

AFARI GYAN DECLARED IN BROAD DAYLIGHT THAT, HE WAS GOING TO PROSECUTE HIS EC STAFFS FOR DOING BAD JOB DURING THE 2012 ELECTIONS, AND WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO THE JUDGES AND TO MAHAMA, AS WELL AS, THE NDC? THE SUPREME COURT HAD NOT SITTEN ONTHE CASE BUT THE EC CAME OUT WITH GENUINE MISTAKES TOO ON THE ELECTIONS? CAN THE EC MAKE MISTAKES ON HIGHLY CONTESTED ELECTIONS LIKE THAT 2012 AS EVERY GHANAIAN KNEW THAT THE NDC UNDER PERFORMED DURING THE PAST 4 YEARS? EVEN THE FOUNDER FORMER PRESIDENT RAWLINGS SAID THE RESULTS OF THE ELECTIONS OUGHT TO BE IVESTIGATED. AND WE SEE JUSTICE KPEGAH BRINGING IN OLD TRICKS TO SUE AKUFFO ADDO OF IMPERSONATING AS A LAWYWER, WHILST HE NEVER BROUGHT THIS UP DURING THE ELECTIONEERING CAMPAIGN? THAT'S WHY JUSTICE KPEGAH IS KILLING PEOPLE IN AN ANT-HILL CUTTING OF HUMAN HEADS AT RANDOM. WE ARE ASHANTIS AND WE KNOW HOW EVERY TRIBE IN GHANA BEHAVES, BECAUSE KUMASI IS FULL OF ALL THE TRIBES IN GHANA AND WE CAN TELL WHAT IS HAPPENING IN JINJINI NOW,AS AFARI GYAN HAD STOPPED HIS FISH-POND FARM FOR OF RETRIBTION AGAINST HIS KINSMEN IN JINJINI. HOW CAN THIS NDC AND AFRI GYAN STOP THE GERMANY'S OFFER FOR FREE SECONDARY EDUCATION TO THE GHANAIAN YOUTH? WE WILL SOON SEE ALL FROM THE SUPREME COURT AS MAHAMA RESIGNS INCOGNITO.

THE SC WOULD HARDLY VOTE TO REMOVE THE PRESIDENT, EVEN IF THERE ARE TONS OF EVIDENCE OF VOTE RIGGING. ONE MAIN REASON: THE PRESIDENT HAS ALREADY BEEN INAUGURATED. ONE MAJOR MISTAKE IS THAT THE INAUGURATION OF THE DECLARED WINNER TAKES PRECEDENCE OVER FILING OF ALLEGED FRAUD COMPLAINTS REGARDLESS OF THE MAGNITUDE.
VOTING AND COUNTING WERE TELECAST LIVE, SO WHY NOT TELECAST THE COURT PROCEEDINGS LIVE FOR ALL GHANAIANS, AND THE WORLD, TO SEE HOW THE SC WOULD ARRIVE AT THEIR JUDGEMENT? IS GHANA STILL IN THE STONE AGE ERA?
IT WOULD BE WRONG TO KEEP GHANAIANS IN THE DARK REGARDING THE PROCEEDINGS.
