This man s a complete joker
Atuguba wanted his nephew to keep his job as an Executive Assistant toPresident Mahamah. Plain and simple. How can he in good conciense dismiss overvoting even when the EC boss Aferi Gyan admitted that there were EC structur ...

NPP have always stood against progress. Just look at the record, Akosombo dam, Motoway, Job 600, industries, Universities, Independence so why should you be surprised they want to bring Ghana toher knees?
ALL THAT TSATSU TSIKATA IS DRIVING AT IS TO GET JUSTICE ANIM YEBOAH MURDERED LIKE HE DID TO THE FORMER 3 JUDGES. BECAUSE HE ESCAPED FROM HIS HEINOUS CRIME (SHIELDED BY PNDC) HE WANTS TO DO IT AGAIN.
NPP Asante Kotoko supporters have not recovered from the stupid SC verdict so we are not in mood for any soccer to go to the Kumasi stadium to support the black stars so please change the venue to Mahama's home town.
Can people just play back Akuffo-Addo's concession speach? Clearly he did not say I will not seek review but "we will not seek review" meaning the other two petitioners were in agreement with what he said. Why was the petitio ...

TSIKATA NEVER SAID THAT BUT YOU ARE SAYING IT AND WE WILL EXECUTE YOUR WISH.
HE DESERVES TO BE HIT FROM ANGLES.
Some are asking for the review. let's wait and see.
I do agree with Mr Baako, there is no need for any review. What I am interested in is how the Judges deliberated and came to the decision they made.
The chapter of the 2012 election should be closed with the Supreme Court ...

LET THEM GO AHEAD FOR A THIRD HUMILIATION IN 24 MONTHS. NDC - STRAIGHT TO 2020
I disagree with Kwaku. If the lawyers feel there is chance they should go because some supporters would want to see a fight to the full length possible to see the defeat conclusive without any gaps if it so happens.
I agree with Kay.If the Party's National Council feel it necessary then let that be their prerogative. Who knows, it might shed some light on this puzzling verdict and give the Ghanaian public their legal reasoning for this l ...

What a mouth Kwaku Baako, you are talking rot.
When Nana Akufo Addo lost the 2008 Presidential Election, did he consult the National Executive Council before he conceded? I never heard of any such consultation and the NEC did not over-rule his decision to concede, so why ...

KAY, IM PRAYING HARD THAT THE NPP TOP GUYS LISTEN TO YOU. IT WILL BE GOOD FOR NDC. HUMILIATION NUMBER 3 FOR NPP. IDIOTS DIE 3 TIMES BEFORE THEY KNOW THEY ARE DEAD.
There is no point taking a case to this Rule of the Jungle Supreme Court! Ghana's Judiciary should never be trusted. NPP should boycott all elections unless petitions can be heard by the International Court of Justice! Mahama ...

ALL that i can say is you are or may be sick in your head if only you have one. Hahahahaah!
Oh my god the NPP is fucked up badly. Are you guys still dreaming of governing Ghana in 2013 till the next election? You guys should and must understand that you lost election and will have to wait for the next election. That ...

That's who they are, NPP.
Who will be the flagbearer? The first petitioner is not interested. However, the petition sort to make the first petitioner the president so how does the supreme court handle this?
If Nana is not interested in fighting it does not mean he will refuse to rule if he is adjudged to have won the election. According to the constitution If a president for whatever reason is not available, his vice becomes t ...

You are not only a keen observer but a good one. This is a major legal question the NPP must answer.
Nana Addo can decide to go back on his promise not to go for a review, inform Ghanaians as such and consequently joined in ...

The NPP said the battle is the LORD'S. They lost the elections. They took the matter to the lords of justice and the slogans was "battle is the lords'" The nine lords have confirmed the will of the LORD. Even if NPP seeks rev ...

Illiterate!! This is not disgrace it is a constitutional right!
Whose right? NPP never filed a case in the first place so if the petitioners are not interested, how can they go for review? That's what Kwaku Baako is warning them about.That will be a devisive move if they order the second ...

Unless Akufo Addo is part of the review request, the anticipated action will be a non starter.
Where was the NEC when Nana, Jake and Bawumia promised to accept the verdict? Where was the NEC when Gabby promised that Nana will call Mahama personally to congratulate him if declared duly elected?
If nobody rebuked them ...

Precisely so, Kweku! National Executives of the party must listen and listen well! That is the naked truth! They can't afford to ignore the advice to down their tools for a "return match" at the court! The game is over but d ...

No one should be surprised about NPP. If they not ruling no one should be allowed to rule. They have always been against development in Ghana.

Is NPP showing signs of a confused Party?.No wonder some enemies within are jealous of the praises Nana Addo is receiving from lots of meaningful people in Ghana and beyond.Nana has shown that he is a statesman indeed.

They want a review so that there will be a rerun of the polls in the areas Mahama won. They are looking for another dirty and disgraceful slap as occurred in Tain. Then, the NPP will be crippled forever. What juju will they u ...

NPP should concentrate on winning 2016 elections.This is going to waste your time on an impossibility.It will cause more divisions in the party.Nana did the best thing for Mother Ghana by conceding defeat.I rest my case.
