Who gives a shit about your bullcrab delivery.
The NDC judges are saying that the high court should have handled the case but failed to declare whether the supreme court can supersede the high court.
NPP IS A CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION.....

This is just a mockery of our democracy. What these compromised and corrupt judges must remember is that justice resides in the conscience of the people, not in the bosom of the judiciary. DAMN!
This ruling doesn't make sense. So those MP's switching sides can work and act in the name of two political parties at the same time? The MP can campaign as an NDC candidate whiles representing the NPP in parliament until the ...

@Dogo, That is what the Supreme court is saying. Are we all sure the Supreme court is capable of interpreting the constitution of Ghana? Ghana is in deep trouble!
That is what corruption, partisanship and tribalism give birth to. They give birth to weird decisions and mediocrity. Our SC judges may have gone for their looted money by now and we now have to live with the tortuous and amb ...

She's very confused. I doubt if she understands simple English. If she doesn't the way she proves it, that puts herself and the whole country in jeopardy. She doesn't make any sense at all; the Speaker is still right!

I have read the ruling and the ruling itself is unconstitutional. Under NPP’s own constitution, those members are no longer part of the party, also the only reason they can’t re enter parliament is because of the same con ...

That's the problem created by the midget octogenarian by appointing a former slay queen as the CJ. We are doomed.
SC are more confused than NPP party
Hehe he he, what the heck is going on, this reasoning is so so ridiculous, and they call themselves interpretors of the Constitution, shambolic Supreme Court.

Can you file a public notice to have wedding with another man in 2025 and still be in your current marriage
You think laws and their structures are designed and built on myopic and childish minds? Get away from here with your shallow mind and let deep thinkers comment on the issue.
Where is the difference from what the speaker said?
Read and understand before you comment.
Sad indeed for Mother Ghana. Almost all the cases cited by the Supreme Court to justify their decision are the "Unanimous FC" bogus and politically biased decisions like the Gyakye Quayson case. Supreme Court was only to inte ...

Retiring in shame, they have destroyed Ghana’s democracy and the independence of the judiciary

Correct for three points. I’m surprised our judges seem corrupt.

Please Judges what is the meaning of Party in this context? Please define what a Party is?

What is difficult about the law. People vote for you on a ticket. You come to parliament on that ticket. If you change that ticket you vacate your seat. You don't talk about a future parliament. Shame.
This is the reason why it is rumoured that judges are interred facedown in their coffins. Nation wreckers!
You can't see this comment because you're using a China phone
So what is the difference between this ruling and the one we already know which was applied?

I think I agree with you. And what that means is that we don't currently have a majority leader neither do we have a minority leader. The committees of Parliament have to be reconstituted. Speaker was wrong in making NPP majo ...

@Tony, you've made it abundantly clear that when people fail to know they don't know they openly expose their own stupidity by erroneously thinking others are rather stupid. Indeed ignorance is expensive.
What kind of selfish thinking is this? Now we getting to understand why I’m our history, some judges went missing. Always twisting the law to favor their paid masters.
Don't think Npp will remain in power forever. If you publicly made your political self known you will be treated as such. The EC will be first to be sacked when NDC wins. The next person is you chief justice then others follo ...

The interpretation of the ruling vindicate the speaker.
This is the exact interpretation and conclusion that the vast majority of people reached. Throughout the discourse, no one assumed that article 97 referred to a future parliament.
Are perfectly right, how can anybody think that it is about the future? What if they don't win? What if the world comes to an end before 7th December?
Are these judges on some hard stuff?
The CJ should go back to her books because their ruling has made us confused and nothing to learn from it.
There must be a constitutional review so that the supreme court judges can apply to be CJ.in the near future.

Thank you SC. This is common sense. Shame in the anarchist Bagbin. Now see how you have been disgraced. Shame on you.
I don't have problem of the ruling but how come supreme Court Judges have different view of ONE constitution of Ghana? 3 judges are on different view and 2 judges has same like how, so we don't have a clear constitution
