  • Whatever 10 years ago

    If NPP can't live with the KPMG report, then they must quickly give up on their mad pursuit because KPMG is the witness for the supreme court like Bawumia was for the petitioners. So Gabby should fool himself. NPP has already ...

  • Jato Julor (J.J.) Rawlings 10 years ago

    Tsatsu Tsikata, why did you attempt to tender pink sheets (from what you called NPP strongholds)that were fraught with irregularities if you really believed that the elections was free and fair ?

    That attempt by you, which ...

    THEN IT IS THE PROOF OF FAULTY ELECTION

  • RealKT 10 years ago

    I strongly disagree with you. Because if it was faulty then NPP should have gone to court for re-election or at least recount but not being selective. If an election was faulty all around, you don't pick and choose to make co ...
