I know the Hagans are very intelligent but you, Ebenezer Hagan, have shown your poor current knowledge of the Constitution which gives power to Polling agents.

What You ought to have known before penning down this Kejetia toilet tissue for an article is that Polling Agent's Power of 2001 is not same for 2012. Are you out of your senses or you just wanted to hoodwink Kookoase Npp supporters to believe your illiteracy?

ANALYSING YOUR QUOTE BELOW SHOWS YOUR INEPTITUDE"
==================================
"Per Ampiah JSC. [W]here power is given to a person to perform a particular duty, such power shall not be delegated without due process of law. The maxim is, delegatus non potest delegare (A delegated power cannot be delegated.) The manner by which a voter may be identified and allowed to vote, is set down clearly in regulation 30 of CI 15. It is not the business of all the candidates’ agents... to “affirm that they know the person” before he or she is allowed to go through with the voting steps.
====================================

It is very clear you have loaded your Toilet with Pooh as individually identifying every voter before voting was never any part of Tsatsu's cross examination so why chip in this lie to make your case hold?

It is very clear and concise of Tsatsu's cross examination questions put to Bawumia on Polling agents and all level headed individuals got the import of it except a Koookoase Hagan.

Can you illiterate recoil back into whatever hole you crawled out of? When did we do any amendment to the constitution to change the role of polling Agents? Now any fool with an access to a computer wants to be heard even if they have no clue the issue at stake.

Is it not sad an illiterate like this London watchman is calling a legal mind like Hagan illiterate when this idiot even believes a group of children is CHILDRENS?

Illiterate fool, did you listen to Tsatsu's cross examination when he implied that since the NPP polling Agents did not complain, then Npp has no right to commplain now or the English being used at the court is too technical for you dumb trokosi incestuous child rapist to understand?

Idiot, you call that analysis? Did you even understand what you quoted? What a dumb illiterate from this dumb London watchman.

It is a fact that even the Inspector General of Police and Head of the Civil Service delegate their functions the reason why they do not work in their offices as individuals, but have people appointed to help them with their function. The rules of all elections in Ghana demand that representatives of the contesting parties must be present and validate the votes, even when it is a GPRTU election.

Mr Hagan, I find your accusation against the lead Counsel for the third respondent very unfortunate. I must admit that I have not had the time to listen to all the live coverage but from what I listened to so far, Tsatsu's argument on the role of party agents is not about delegation of responsibility or duty. His argument is, if there were objections from NPP party agents over pooling station results, did they put in official complain by completing the complaint form? That is my understanding and not delegation of responsibility or duty as you are trying to impugn in your article. To say the least, your article is very misleading and misrepresentation of Tsatsu and what has been happening in court. I hope you are not a lawyer but if you are, then, it's very serious.

This is a good analysis but it appeared very skewed towards the NPP case and lacked a balance approached to what is otherwise a good piece of writing .
Part of Tsatsu's case is that the party agent had the opportunity to raise their grievance at the “material time” and failed to do so. There were arrangements in place for their grievance to be addressed and any anomalies corrected at the “material time” as happened in Adjoa Sarfo's case. However the NPP party failed to raised any concerns regarding the anomalies etc and some even went ahead to okay the results by appending their signatures .
It comes across to the independent that the NPP complain was an after thought.
The EC's case is that if the said concerned had been raised at the “material time” by the party agent as part of the checks put in place and agreed by all parties then their concerns could have been addressed as it was done in Adjoa Sarfo's case.
I agree with you that party agent to organise election but that is not the issue at stake

Ebenezer is spot on! I have listenned to about 90% of Tstatsu' circutous cross examination of Dr Bawumia. That is exactly what he has been trying to do, shifting the onus from the presiding oficers to the poor polling agents.

Together, counsel for the respondents must have asked up to fifty questions about polling agents at the polling stations.

Which Ghanaian does not know that in most villages in the Volta and the three northern Regions, polling agents always favour the highest bidder, usually the NDC. Weren't Dr Ohene and his friends from Accra badly beaten in the Ho area in 2008?

That is why parties like the CPP don't even bother to appoint polling agents in some regions.

Apart from trying to impugn Dr Bawumia's integrity on numbers, I don't believe he has made a dent in the validity of the proponent's case.

Kobena, enough of your selective hearing. Tsikata has never claimed the polling agent is superior or responsible for identifying voters as claimed by Hagan? he claims representative of the NPP at the polling stations under contention, had the capacity to identify problems such as over-voting and enough powers to complain and or object to the results in an official manner.

and the reason why some parties don't field polling agents at some stations is resources and not because the agents in volta and the north accept bribes? that is an ignorant comment and something you cant prove so your opinion is not fact

The author painstakingly drew attention to Tsatsu’s inept cross examination of a petitioner; and Tsatsu’s calculated and misguided attempt to rest the failings of an Electoral Commission (EC) on the shoulders of Party Agents.

The author rightly pointed out the distinction between the roles of a Party Agent and a Presiding officer (an agent for an Electoral Commission) during an election.

The point is that The Electoral Commission allegedly failed in its duty to ensure the accuracy of election results at the polls. It is the Electoral Commission and its agents that are paid by the tax payer to ensure that the rules governing any election are correctly followed at the polls.

Poll observers such as Party Agents have the right to raise objections about the conduct at the polls, if they have reason to do so. However, a missed opportunity by an observer to draw attention to an error during counting at a poll does not absolve the EC from its duty to correct an error or ensure election rules are observed by all participants.

The onus for the proper maintenance and enforcement of the rules governing an election falls directly in the hands of the EC and not in the hands of Party Agents.

Hence, Tsatsu’s line of questioning aimed at deflecting attention from the ineptitude of the EC to Party observers is amateurish and lacks legal punch.

A party observer may miss a trick and inadvertently append their signature to a fraudulent election result. The signature does not authenticate the fraudulent act if later the fraud comes to light.

Trokosi IDIOT, now listen up: You wrote, " What You ought to have known before penning down this Kejetia toilet tissue for an article is that Polling Agent's Power of 2001 is not same for 2012"

My comments: If you are NOT camouflaging your mental capacity, what you ought to do is to tell us or the write of this Perfect Article as to when the Law was Changed regarding the Role of the Polling Agents.

For a very long time Ghanaians had been clamouring for a Constitutional Change or Amendments, and when your THIEVERY NDC GOVERNMENT under the late ATTA MYTHS had the opportunity to do so, the poor Ghanaian Taxpayer's Money to the tune of $7MILLION was wasted under this Ramond Atuguba, who now is an Executive Secretary to this inept MAHAMA.

By the way, what was Tsatsu Tincutter doing in the strong room when he hadn't even had accredation to do so.

If this is a new model of Democracy that you TROKOSIS are trying to determine upon us LEGITIMATE GHANAIANS, THEN WE SHALL EXERCISE OUR OPTION OF SHOWING YOU THE TOGO BORDER VERY SHORTLY.

Like was said by Rawlings years ago, Tsatsu is more intelligent that all the combined intelligence of all NPP leaders in 2000. if you doubt this bring Akufo Addo and Jake, and you will see wonders.

Tsatsu is a poor excuse of a Trial Lawyer and it doesn't even take a lawyer to see that. Some of us who have seen lawyers in court on numerous occassions do cross examination can tell Tsatsu might be a great Law Professor but he is not a Trial Lawyer. Trial lawyering is a specialty Tsatsu has no clue about and he is acting in court like a dog chasing its own tail going in circles.

Atuguba has to rescue Tsatsu on many occassions and it was sad when Tsatsu asked asked a question about IC and that Bawumiah rather corrected him when it came out Tsatsu had no clue what the IC is.

Tsatsu has asked many open ended questions that have given Dr Bawumiah to make statements and every trial lawyer knows that, you don't ask a Witness questions you don't know what the answer is going to be neither do you have to ask open questions with WHAT, WHEN, HOW suffixes and Tsatsu has done that in abandon at one time even asking Dr Bawumiah about his opinion, a NO NO in law 101 that even a first year law student can tell you.

Anytime he makes such mistakes, instead of telling Dr Bawumiah that he has answered the question asked and NO STATEMENTS IS NEEDED, because he has no Trial experience, he tries to cut Dr Bawumiah off with another quick question and that is not how it is done.

It's sad to see his supporters who have no clue what is going on praising his failed cross examination. After twelve days cross examining Dr Bawumiah, it has come out that Tsatsu vaunted luminary legal mind is just a mirage. Tsatsu will not even succeed in USA as a Traffic Ticket lawyer, he is that horrible.

Are you people serious?... did you even watch the presidential debate? what sense did bawumia make? he has set his own questions and he is answering them in court and you people take delight in listening to him....Dr. Bawumia keeps on saying that the law was not followed. But they themselves did not follow the same law. The law says if you have any objections fill the complaint form but since they did not follow the laid down procedure, they have no bases for going to court!!!! Please tell Tsastu for me.

In fact, its a shame that Bawumia and his people are just brewing disaster for the nation. But God is in control! How can you go to court with only documents from your opponents strong hold and wish that they become annulled when you know perfectly that all those things you are complaining about also happened at your strong hold too. This is nonsense!!!!!! Thay should give Ghana a break. After all, nothing is working in Ghana.

That is the bane of the NPP case that irregularities occured and the fact that it happened in NPP strongholds does not mean it was the npp that benefitted from the rigging scheme.

The election in the NPP strongholds were conducted by the EC and not npp. What kind of moronic argument is that?

The complaints are to be lodged at the polling station where the elections took place not at party headquarters. When the petitioners went to EC to ask for delayed declaration of results, what evidence did they produce? NONE, that is why wiseman Afari Djan asked them to go to court with their evidence since he could not delay the declaration without just cause or with verbal complaint.

The main duties of the agent is to act in the principals best interest and honestly.Mr Hagan forgets that a duty is created by this appointment.In effect the acts and omissions of the agent are the responsibility of the principal.So if the agent fails to discharge his or her duties as the principal expects of him,the responsibility of that lack of duty of care is that of the principal.

The common law Hagan is relying on relates more to the election process than the role of the electoral agent and the duties expected of the agent in the conduct and transparency of the elections.By law,these duties and responsibilities are very important so the agent can hold the electoral agent or the presiding officer accountable at each and every stage of the electoral process.Any over rule by the presiding officer must be documented for later adjudication.It is again important to remind Hagan that time does not wait for the indolent and whether the duties of the agent are properly discharged or not, the principal is vicariously responsible to the out come.

There seems to be too many pocket lawyers like Hagan Ebenezer in the system. His article is neither here nor there. Article 49 (3) clearly states that "The presiding officer, the candidates or their representatives and, in the case of a referendum, the parties contesting or their agents and the polling agents if any, shall then sign a declaration stating - a) the polling station, and b) the number of the votes cast in favour of each candidate or question; and the presiding officer shall, there and then, announce the results of the voting at that polling station before communicating them to the returning officer." The constitution gives a clear mandate to the polling agents. They definitely not mere observers. The act of the agent is binding on the principal, except the personal criminal conduct of the agent.
