The noise you made among others and the diluted stuff you wrote and wrote on the impending verdict as if you were possed by gbesi has been a noise in futility!! Not even your (NPP) over 100 lawyers and even Professors in Law can ever withstand the mighty prowess of the legalistic and jurisprudence acumen of Tsatsu!!!
He was born and bred in Law and no amount of the volume of people you might bring to the courts, Tsatsu will nullify your case!!
Now is the time to humble yourselves!!
Pride takes people to their destruction and graves!!! Even your Lead counsel was told to shut up!! Because he was behaving alike a JSS lawyer in the Supreme Court>
His oral submission was just like hitting the war drums!!!!!!!
Please NPP, you have lost it all!!
Prove to the world that NPP is not a tribal political organisation!!! Why since 1992, only Akans or the "y3n akanfuo supremacist are the only ones featuring as Flagbearers!! Bring Nana again and A gargabtuan defeat awaits you!!! Nana is not well cut out for the presidency of Nkrumah@s Ghana!!! No Oh!! An expired political candidate, a war lord at best can be an oldish odikro!! Not a Ghanaian President!!! Not at all!! How can Ghanaians have a president who hasn't got any certificate except Afidavit!!!

A sheer display of inferiority complex and viceral hatred for Akans and Nana Akufo Addo. If NDC is not tribal, could you explain how on earth every voter in Ewe Region voted for NDC?

On the flagbearer argument, have you ever heard of an Ewe flagbearer in any democratic party before, aside from half-Ewe Rawlings who actually usurped power? Let NDC bring out an an Asante or Akyem flagbearrer to prove that its non-tribal.

On Tsatsu Tsikata, only fools will hold this arrogant ex-convict as having legal "prowess" worth writing home about. For the lack of coherent logic to counter Addison's assertiness, Tastsu was compelled to spill out his inferiority complex by shouting at the former who remained COMPOSED in the face of that provocation while biased panel of judges led by Agutuba looked on with indifference. If fools saw that display of complex by Tsatsu as being a sign of legal acumen, I leave them to have "fun" in their own daft sentiment.

It'll be an unwise idea to go tribal in Ghana my friend, because it'll NOT be helpful, so don't even push for that.

Tsatsu proved what a shameful lawyer he has been. A shameful convict for that matter! One wonders whether this is the man Aberewa Maame Fante referred to as "Tsatsu anaa?"
That concert we all watched on our TVs from April to August, starring the trio Atuguba, Afari Gyan and Tsatsu, was indeed total ridicule of democracy and the rule of law in Ghana - my motherland! It was shameful, to say the least. Kids who watched glimpses of the court proceedings will in no way warm to the legal profession if this is what law is all about!
We must all condemn what is wrong. It is true that so far the NPP flag bearers have all been Akans; but that is because Akans are in the majority among the Ghanaian populace. Even that, you cannot call that as a tribal case when votes in the Akan regions have a better spread than what we get from the Volta region, in particular. And that is another shameful tribalism we must all condemn, I mean the voting pattern in Transvolta land.
The North now have their man in the driving seat. Let us all count how many men in 'high positions' in the country currently are not Northerners (or Voltaians). I bet this is also nothing to do with tribalism! And many of them do not deserve their positions!! Do you want names? Wait a minute!

Justice Atuguba is a big disgrace judge ever seen in the world. Where did he school? Ghana or abroad? It is very sad and shame to appoint some of these judges as supreme court judges.Atuguba needs to go back to school and learn law again. He learned his law with how to accept bribe as well. Bad old man. God will judge you.

I am guessing, by your name, that you are in the United States of America, where I am. If so you might have watched the U.S. Supreme Court render decisions on cases brought before them. When they do, they always read all the reasons, the arguments of the defence and the prosecution teams, justifying the verdict the Court has arrived at. That is democracy, not dictatorship. Bluntly telling the country that a candidate was fairly elected president, throwing away the petitioners' case without justifying your reasoning is tantamount to dictatorship, not democracy.

I hope Kwami understands that.

Johnny, sorry, you cannot guess just by my name that I am living in the USA. The name Kwami, Kwame, Kouami, Kouame, Kormi or whatever, irrespective of the spellings, are Saturday-born in West Africa (i.e Benin, Togo, Ghana, and Ivory Coast) You can only guess that I live in the USA only because I always pen on Ghanaweb using Kwami-US. If I were to be using Kwami - Africa, then what would have been your response. Sorry you live right here in Atlanta but lack deductive reasoning. Perhaps,Atuguba only did what the other eight (8) had asked him to do: announcing the result as it had been decided upon by the SC ruling. I hope I am clear. Nana lost both the elections and the SC verdict. Get over it and start putting your own house together for 2016 instead of having useless and unproductive debates; unnecessary power wrangling and wielding among your rank and file.

I am sure they only come and go and dont will not stay until their too old to live in America.
So called Americans. Stand for election in America and serve.

Adofo should go back to Ghana if he thinks he is too good and we will see what he can do for us.
He should stop writing for cheap popularity. Akoko left US to serve. Go and join him and serve him if you are too good. Adofo Are you a Senator or Representative of your State or even Governor. You can revisit the topic anytime but the fact is that NPP lost the Appeal.
We need to focus on 2016 and not to dwell on the past.

Kwami is surely a Volatarian. How can you expect an Eweman to think outside tribal lines? Like the late Prof Awonor, all (or most) Ewe men and women believe that anybody who does not speak frequency 37 Mhz is bad. Try chatting up an Ewe girl in the vicinity of Ewe boys and come back and tell us what happens if one of the Ewe boys should shout out a phrase in that holy frequency! The girl will not even excuse you before she dashes to her new find - the Ewe boy!
All Ewe know their kind. Anything non Ewe is non existence and wrong and bad FULL STOP!!!!

If you belief yourself go home and denouce you citizenship and be a Ghanaian and join NPP and lead them to victory. Nana abandon US for Ghana for he believes in himself. Follow Nana steps if you really think you can survive in Ghana for a month, then I will really respect you and appreciate you. Also if you think you too good, then stand as a REp , Governor or Sanator . I am sure you will not even get 1 vote you did.
YOu just stay outside and try to cause confusion in Ghana. Come home if you have the balls.
use your time to write books and other stuff that you have been doing and stop the war drums.
Go back home from London or wherever you are and contribute like Nana and Dr. Bawumia and others have done.

Whether you like it or not a Pepenii is ruling Ghana now and will win again for another term.
Hilla Liman,John Mahama and possibly Bawumia will go in history as great men in Ghana. Look Around you. Cant you see that we the so called "Pepenii" have caught up with you southerners in Education,Economically , socially and politically?
We are all Ghanaians and should respect each other. YOu know why NPP lost 2X? it is because of people like you. WE the "Pepenii" have the numbers and we have a strong say when it comes to elections. If NPP is not a tribal tribe and they put Dr. Bawumia and it leader they are more likely to win than with Nana. this is something NPP can never come to terms with. You will lose again in 2016.

IN THE EYES OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY AND GHANAIAN POPULACE AT HOME AND ABROAD, THE TOP COURT IS BIAS AND CORRUPT. GHANAIANS CAN NO LONGER DEPEND ON IT TO SAFEGUARD AND PROTECT THE CONSTITUTION. INDEED, IT IS VERY PATHETIC FOR CHIEF JUSTICE TO APPOINT PARTISAN AND BIAS JUDGE LIKE ATUGUBA TO HEAD SUCH SENSITIVE AND IMPORTANT CASE. ATUGUBA’S BEHAVIOR AND ATITUDE HAS BROUGHT ONE OF THE REPUTABLE AND HIGHLY RESPECTED COURT IN THE WORLD, GHANA SUPREME COURT INTO THE MUD. IT WILL TAKE YEARS FOR THE COURT TO REDEEM ITS IMAGE.
