Anytime there is a tense situation in any African nation, the best results some people especially the White man is expecting is chaos. They have predicted a gloom doom, massive civil unrest, chaos of unimaginable proportion, endless civil war etc because they see us as brutes, savages, uncivilized, uncouth hordes, fools etc, but as a Ghanaian who love his country, we will prove these naysayers wrong after the court's ruling.

There will be isolated incidents but overall, there will be no bloodbath as happened in other countries in the West Africa sub-region. Ghana is peaceful nation despite being under bad leadership. We will survive and move on with our lives so, those predicting a bloodbath for us, should hold their breath because we will hold our head high above stormy waters.

Pelicles, well said. The whites see conflicts, wars etc as opportunity to make money as they come in to sell arms to both sides. All the conflicts in the world benefit the white people who manufacture all sorts of arms to fuel those conflicts.

What they don't understand is Ghana and Ghanaians are unique in some sort. We did not just imbibed white culture or education, we have infused and enriched them with our own time honored traditions and values. Ghana, I keep saying was not created by the colonialists, what they did was hurried along a process that was slowly taking shape on its own. What do you think the Ashanti empire was about? If one will care to dissect it carefully you will come to the realization that they were on a quest to bring many tribes under one canopy under a central hierarchical authority and entity called the Asantehene. Many of our preexisting colonial chiefdoms or nation-states went to war to expand their area of influence, territory and bring everybody under one control, be it the Ya Na, Asantehene, Ga Mantse, Togbega etc. They all, instinctively yearned for inclusiveness and enlargement; there at the heart of it, is what informs Ghanaians that they belong to each other. That there is strength in unity, hence we tend to draw towards each other, rather than away from each other. We do value life and property, hence we do not and have yielded to anarchists such as Rawlings, who intended to drive wedge amongst the tribes to sustain themselves in power - divide and rule style.

The judges will provide their judgment and whichever way it goes, Ghana will continue to hold together. If for nothing, I hope the judges make recommendations to reform and improve the electoral process, if even they rule in favor of the NDC. The NPP succinct went to court to close the loopholes by which some corrupt elements can steal elections. If we achieve that, I will call the petition an exercise worthy of pursuing.

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!

I blame Rawlings for breeding thug-politicians in Ghana, because HE himself is/was a thug and thought his NDC crooks how to rig elections. We should thank the western world for putting pressure on him to give way to democratic rule other wise he (Rawlings) would be like Mogabe - still ruling.
