Power sharing is simply not in our vocabulary and it can never be done in Ghana.

Let the NDC rule by themselves if the SC accepts their theft. Even JJ declared himself a winner with no competition in 1992 but nothing changed. Ghana will still be Ghana.

We are tired of NPP greediness. They never accept defeat.Whenever they loose election, its rigged but when they win its fair. You guys are Nation breakers.Mahama should start the 4year after the verdict.

AUTHOR: MARTIN A.B.K. AMIDU....

It would appear that those in control of the NDC, for the time being, were bent on excluding other bona fide members of the Party who may wish to lay democratic claims to who becomes the next flag bearer of the Party by excluding them even before the mortal remains of the demised President were interred. It is also symptomatic of how political party elites in Ghana and Africa worm their way into the confidences of persons perceived as likely to ascend to power positions for purposes of eventual personal economic gain at the expense of the generality of the mass of Party members and the Nation which every President swears to serve under the Constitution...

Npp criminals, thieves, looters, nation wreckers, arsonists, murderers, lairs’ what npp are looking for is to come to power to loot the nation's resources. Npp thinks Ghanaians have soon forgotten when they were stealing gold, money, land and other state properties. Ministers saving government loans in their individual foreign accounts and keeping the interest accrued before releasing the capital to nation's coffers. In fact, the SC is really wasting time that is why these crooks think they still stand a chance. Where on earth have you seen SC removing democratically elected president and putting in a 70 years old drug baron, greedy and arrogant man as president? You have been found out and God will punish you for wasting Ghanaian tax-payers money. Npp would surely pay for their demonic and evil plans. Useless npp leaders you have become a laughing stock, you know the truth yet you are fighting it are you not ashamed of yourself? Akuffo Addo, you will never be president of this great country. Npp are so desperate that each day they pollute the airwaves and electronic media with lies and lies and these lies are propagated and boomed by their mouthpieces such as adomfm, peacefm, joyfm, ghanaweb etc. Shame on to you. You will never succeed. Thieves!

Fake leaders claim thrones without building kingdoms as pepeni has done by murdering mills . today there is another divide and that is the north south whereby these Muslims think its their god given right to plunder and oppress the Akans. Just as pharaoh had pestilence after pestilence , no water , no electricity , no infrastructure , no development, chinese locusts poisoning our lands and waters ,corruption and death everywhere and the people suffer. they are blind to see the will of God and in their selfish fantasies think its a right or their turn to pillage the coffers . they send their chariots or special police and army to try in put fear in the children of God the Akans . we are told their plan is to start shooting first and again blame the Akans so we must now prepare and make sure when they do not a single one leaves alive . we number millions and can never be defeated by your mischievous fools . THe lord has promised us freedom and nobody with their trickery and biased toilet carrying pepeni judges can stop it.It is time to take the children to the villages and prepare to defend ourselves against this evil pepeni , long live the republic of Akan

For a clear winner, only the people can decide in a run-off. The Head of Judiciary swore him in as the President. They should not make another mistake to declear Nana Addo Dankwah president. Only and only the governed should decide who should govern them, and not the nine SANKWAN Supreme Court members. The cardinal duty of the Supreme Court is to interprete the Law or the Constitution. Election is civil responsibility. Declare the run-off election day a National Holiday for all to participate to know who is the real liked person to rule. They should have delayed the inauguration to have a swift hearing to declear one of them winner as happened between Al Gore and Bush here in the U. S. A. but went ahead to swear him in as President. Please, for Heaven sake, throw it back to the people and excuse Afari Djan, and appoint one of the SANKWAN Supreme Court members to oversee the run-off. I am talking about Presidential not Parliamentary. Should Nana Akuffo Addo win the run-off, the power sharing will come to play as exits in the U.S.A. where the President is a Democrate and the House is Republican. A little bit here, a little bit there to finish the term. The whole world will see Ghana as civilised and capable of managing their own affairs free from chaos

Give to us justice and not power sharing.
We are in court for justice, we are not in court to fight for NDC and NPP to share power.
If the Supreme Court rules on the 29th of August, she will rule not on power sharing, but will rule on the rule of law.
We must render as a nation our full support on the winner so they will start to help all the people of Ghana.
If Nana Akufo-Addo wins, I hope he will be the true father of all by his promise to do everything humanly possible to give a free SHS to every child.
If they do not pocket the peoples money in the name of corruption, Nana will be able to achieve his promise and put Mahama and his NDC to shame.

Do we really understand what they mean by power sharing that we are always jumping into conclusions?
Power sharing is the only way to move this nation forward only if we understands what power sharing means.
1, One becomes a president of a nation and not a political party he or she came from. So truly and freely if one becomes a president of a Country and not his or her political party, then he or she have to put his party behind and look everywhere for most qualify individuals that can do the job of moving the country forward by enforcing all intended programs and making sure we love one another to be in one hand working to help all Ghanians no matter they political.
We are all one people and as such must always share our ideas in moving Ghanians forward.

HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THAT MR ASIEDU NKETIAH STATED BEFORE THE COURT CASE THAT NPP WERE URGING FOR POWER SHARING AND THAT NO SECTION OF THE CONSTITUTION DERIVES ANY VALIDITY FOR SUCH DECISION? OH MY GOD WHAT A CONFUSION.
