It's funny! Who do you think you are? It's no wonder that Rawlings was able to deceive unsuspecting Ghanaians to believe that he and his AFRC/P-NDC gang could lead Ghana to the top of "SUGAR MOUNTAIN" while he vilified everyone. In the process criminals like you got recruited to the criminal association or brigade, to harass, maim, and murder your targeted citizens. You guys said all kinds of lies about innocent Ghanaians, some of whose properties and business were confiscated to the state while your gang amassed wealth. Look at your fat faces and big bellies; you think you're on top of the world.
Don't dare compare yourself to Dr. Bawumia because he's not your class. You wish you could get someone like him in your family.

Supreme Court dismisses Amekudzi's application
Supreme Court in Accra
Accra, May 28, GNA - The Supreme Court on Tuesday unanimously dismissed a review application for amicus curiae, filed by Lawyer Benoni Tony Amekudzi, challenging the suit against the President in the on-going election petition.
Before the ruling, Lawyer Amekudzi told the court that per the 1992 Constitution, the President could not be sued or be joined to a law suit as a defence.
He, therefore, described the petition against the President as frivolous, gross error and dangerous precedent, citing article 57, section 4, 5, 6, of the constitution as basis for his argument.
Lawyer Amekudzi cited a Supreme Court case involving the NPP and President Rawlings in the early 90s in which the NPP challenged President Rawlings over the appointment of District Chief Executives in court but by a 3-2 majority the court held that the President could not be sued.
He said the President is Head of State, father of the nation and the Commander in Chief of the Ghana Armed Forces and that the aura and respectability of his office must be protected.
In its ruling, Justice William Atuguba, President of the Supreme Court, said though the applicant did not follow the procedures in moving his application, the court has had to look at the substance of his case.
He said the applicant needed a proper locus which he lacked.
Justice Atuguba said the court had given thought to the concerns of Amekudzi but Article 64 of the constitution, on which basis the petitioners are in court is a unique article on its own, and could not change its earlier position, and therefore, dismissed the application.
On 3rd May, 2013, the Supreme Court dismissed an application for an amicus curiae brief, filed by Lawyer Amekudzi, which sought to draw the attention of the court to a violation of the law in the hearing of the presidential election petition involving the President.

POLITRICKS OF THE DAY: NPP Vrs John Mahama Case-Supreme Court Throws Out “Amicus Curiae” Amekudzi Again
GC Staff 3 years ago No Comments
Facebook
Prev Article Next Article
It seems each day comes with its own drama in court for the parties in the on-going NPP and John Mahama case. Once again, Benoni Tony Amekudzi who calls himself a “Friend of the Court” has been thrown out of court, failing to stop the Supreme Court from proceeding with the Election Petition challenging the legitimacy of President John Mahama…
Graphic Reports;
“Friend of the Court”, Benoni Tony Amekudzi Tuesday failed once again to stop the Supreme Court from proceeding with the Election Petition challenging the legitimacy of President John Mahama.
Amekudzi told the Court that the 1992 Constitution, being the supreme law of the land, protects the sitting President from being sued or being joined in any litigation processes before the court and was therefore improper that the Court should entertain the present election petition filed by three members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
But the Court held that there was no ground whatsoever to review its earlier ruling and that where the court was prompted to have taken up the issue by itself, Mr. Amekudzi patently lacked the ‘locus standi’ to apply for the review.
Mr Amekudze was unsuccessful on May 2, when he applied for leave of the court in an amicus curiae application to move a motion to stop the hearing.
On that occasion the court held that Article 64, on which he based his application was a special constitutional provision that did not apply to his case. He was also told he failed to file his affidavit evidence to support his case as per the rules of the court and was therefore not properly before the court.
In his review application, Amekudzi contended that per a number of precedents, the President after he was sworn into office as the father of the nation cannot and
should not be part of the present petition.
He said since it was a well-established position of the law, he expected the court to have taken up the matter and thus decline jurisdiction to the petition filed by Nana Addo Dankwa-Akufo-Addo, NPP presidential candidate in the 2012 general election; Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, vice presidential candidate of the party and Jake Otanka Obetsebi Lamptey, NPP chairman.
Not even several interventions and directions from the bench would deter the determined Amekudzi, who spoke with such verve and style that one of judges had to ‘plead’ with him to bring his pronunciations to the Ghanaian level for all to understand.
Counsel for the petitioners, Philip Addison did not oppose the application but chose to leave it in the capable hands of the court, while counsel for the respondents, Messrs.’ Tony Lithur, James Quashie-Idun, and Tsatsu Tsikata all opposed the application and urged that it be dismissed.
While Lithur said the applicant failed to invoke the Court’s review jurisdiction properly, Tsatsu maintained his earlier submission that the applicant be treated as an inter-meddler whose admission was only going to needlessly delay the petition hearing.
Justice William Atuguba, Chairman of the panel of judges read the decision of the court as follows;
“When invoking our review jurisdiction, we prefer to look at the substance thereof, we consider it on its merit. As far the refusal to grant him leave to intervene as Amicus Curiae is concerned, there are no grounds whatsoever for reviewing our earlier ruling. That remains the issue that the court itself should have raised the point. Even there the applicant first needs locus standi to apply for this review which he patently lacks, however the constitution being a fundamental law and this court having jurisdiction under Article 129 Clause 3, to depart from its decisions on point of law, we deem it meet to give some thought to the matter. We think that Article 64 is a unique and special provision as we held in our earlier ruling and nothing that has been urged on us moves us to change our position to that effect. The application is accordingly dismissed.”

HON. MINISTER OF TRANSPORT DZIFA ATTIVOR
DATE: TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2013
SUBJECT: TO RESPECTFULLY AND HUMBLY REFER TO THE ABOVE RELATED SUBJECT-MATTER WHICH DIRECTLY AFFECTED MY PERSONALITY AND THE ISSUES THEREON RAISED WERE NOT ADDRESSED BY THE SO CALLED LAWYERS/COUNSELS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE ADDRESSES TO ENABLE THE SUPREME COURT TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES IN THE JUDGEMENT DELIVERED BY THE SUPREME COURT.
THEREFORE MAKING OUR DEAR PRESIDENT OF GHANA H.E.PRESIDENT JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA AS LITIGANT THAT WOULD AFFECT FUTURE PRESIDENTS OF GHANA TO BE SUBJECTED TO FRIVOLOUS, MALICIOUS, CAPRICIOUS AND VEXATIOUS LAWSUITS.
THAT AS I HAVE ACCEPTED THE SUPREME COURT DECISION AS THE PETITIONERS AND RESPONDENTS THAT I STILL BELIEVED THE RESPONDENTS COUNSELS DID NOT EXERCISE REASONABLE AND DUE DELIGENCE AS REQUIRED FROM COUNSELS/LAWYERS TO PROTECT THE BEST INTEREST OF THE CLIENT(S).
THAT I ALSO BELIEVED THAT "THERE SHOULD BE FINALITY TO LITIGATION" BUT FOR THE SAKE OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF GHANA JURISPRUDENCE IT BEHOOVES ON ME AS INTERNATIONAL LAWYER/LEGAL CONSULTANT TO RAISE THE ISSUE SINCE THE RESPONDENTS COUNSELS WOEFULLY FAILED TO EVEN TALK TO ME AS FRIENDS OF THE GHANA BAR AND EVEN WHILE THE SUPREME COURT ITSELF AND THE NATIONAL EXECUTIVES AND OTHER MEMBERS OF THE NDC EXPRESSED "CONDOLENCES" TO ME EVEN AT THE COURT WHEN THREE (3) DAYS TO MOVING THE MOTION FOR THE REVIEW OF THE AMICUS CURIAE BRIEF TO PROTECT THE BEST INTEREST OF H.E.PRESIDENT OF GHANA JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA, TO PROTECT GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION ITSELF AS REQUIRED BY THE CONSTITUTION UNDER CHAPTER 001 ARTICLE 1 OF THE CONSTITUTION THAT THE COUNSELS FOR THE FIRST RESPONDENT TONY LITHUR AND COUNSEL FOR THE THIRD RESPONDENT TSATSU TSIKATA DEEM ME AS "INTERMEDDLER ---" AND EVEN THE CASE I RESPECTFULLY MADE CONCERNING THE PETITIONERS FRIVOLOUS PETITION AND PRAY TO THE COURT TO TAKE "A JUDICIAL NOTICE OF THE PETITION ITSELF" AND TO DISMISS SAME DID NOT EVEN SEEM USEFUL TO COUNSEL FOR FIRST RESPONDENT TONY LITHUR.
THAT BECAUSE THEIR CALIBER OF LAWYERS ARE THOSE WHO DO NOT GIVE OPPORTUNITY TO OTHERS BUT SEEKING THEIR OWN SELFISH AND SELF SEEKING INTERESTS.
THAT IT IS MY RESPECTFUL SUBMISSION THAT BECAUSE COUNSELS FOR RESPONDENTS DID NOT EXERCISE REASONABLE LEGAL RESEARCH AND DUE DILIGENCE BUT BASED THEIR ARGUMENTS ON MERE "LOGIC" AND RATIONALIZATION OF THE FACTS BROUGHT SHARP DIVISION AT THE COURT WHICH CULMINATED IN MAJORITY AND MINORITY DECISIONS INSTEAD OF OUTRIGHT STRIKE OF THE FRIVOLOUS CASE BASED MAINLY ON HYPOTHETICAL ANALYSIS OF THE ERRORS ON PINK SHEETS. THAT THE PURPORTED MALPRACTICES NEVER OCCURRED AT THE ACTUAL POLLING STATIONS THAT ALSO RESULTED IN THE SECOND PETITIONER DR.BAWUMIA POSTULATION "YOU AND I WERE NOT THERE BUT ON THE PINK SHEETS".
THAT THE SECOND PETITIONER DR.BAWUMIA WHO IS AN ECONOMIST RATHER GAVE THE EVIDENCE ON BEHALF OF THE PETITIONERS ESPECIALLY HON.NANA AKUFO ADDO WHO WAS GHANA FORMER ATTORNEY GENERAL RATHER NEVER SPOKE A WORD IN THE SUPREME COURT BUT RATHER BEING SEEN TO BE RECEIVING PRAISES. WHAT A PROVERBIAL SCENARIO SITUATIONS THAT WE AS GHANAIANS ARE EXHIBITING AND RELEGATING "TRUTH" RATHER FROM THE SCENE?
IT IS AT THESE RELATED BACKDROPS THAT I STILL HOLD THAT THE "MINORITY DECISION WAS TAKEN "PER CURIA" IN GROSS VIOLATION OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION AND OTHER LAWS.
THAT AS INTERNATIONAL LAWYER/LEGAL CONSULTANT I WOULD NOT WAIT FOR ANY OTHER LAWYER FROM THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY TO RAISE THE ISSUES.
IT IS THEREFORE IN THE LIGHT OF ABOVE THAT I AM RESPECTFULLY PUBLISHING JUST SOME FEW EXCERPTS FROM THE DRAFT PROCEEDINGS AT THE SUPREME COURT CONCERNING MY MOTION FOR THE REVIEW OF THE "AMICUS CURIAE BRIEF AND TO HUMBLY REQUEST THE COURT ITSELF AND ALL THE MEDIA HOUSES THAT CAPTURED THE PROCEEDINGS TO PUBLISH THE FULL PROCEEDINGS OF THE MOTION FOR REVIEW OF THE "AMICUS CURIAE BRIEF".
" DRAFT
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF JUDICATURE, THE SUPREME COURT {CIVIL DIVISION} SITTING IN ACCRA ON TUESDAY, THE 28TH DAY OF MAY 2013
APPLICATION FOR REVIEW OF AMICUS CURIAE
AMEKUDZI : RESPECTFULLY YOUR LORDSHIPS, THIS IS AN APPLICATION OR AN APPEAL FOR REVIEW OF YOUR LORDSHIPS DECISION, PER INCURIAM, ON A MOTION ON NOTICE FOR LEAVE TO FILE AN AMICUS OR FRIEND OF COURT BRIEF TO DRAW THE KIND ATTENTION OF THE COURT TO RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION AND A SETTLED LEGAL PRECEDENT THAT THE COURT IN THE FIRST INSTANT SHOULD HAVE MADE A DETERMINATION ON BEFORE ENTERTAINING THIS PETITION, FRIVOLOUS PETITION BROUGHT AGAINST A SITTING PRESIDENT OF GHANA, WHERE THE MATTER CAME BEFORE THE COURT ON MAY 2ND, 2013, WHERE THE GIST OF IT SIMPLY WAS THAT, THE MOTION ON NOTICE FOR LEAVE FOR AMICUS CURIAE BRIEF WAS DISMISSED AND THE "RATIO DECIDENDI" FOR DISMISSING THE MOTION ON NOTICE FOR LEAVE WAS A GROSS ERROR OF LAW ON THE FACE OF THE RECORD, A DIRECT SLAP AT THE FACE OF JUSTICE, TWISTING, IF NOT TRYING TO BREAK THE ARM OF THE 1992 CONSTITUTION THAT FRAMERS OF THIS CONSTITUTION THAT WAS RATIFIED IN A REFERENDUM BY THE PEOPLE OF GHANA NEVER CONTEMPLATED THAT A SITTING PRESIDENT WHILE IN OFFICE SHALL NOT BE SUED OR JOINED TO A LAWSUIT AS DEFENDANT.
NOW THE RATIO THAT THE SUPREME COURT RELIED ON WAS ARTICLE 64 AND C.I. 16 AND I WILL DEMONSTRATE TO THIS HIGHEST COURT OF GHANA THAT THE DECISION BASED ON THAT RATIO WAS A GROSS ERROR ON THE FACE OF THE REALM, WHICH WILL SERVE A VERY DANGEROUS PRECEDENT IF NOT REVIEWED BECAUSE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RATIO UNDER WHICH THE SUPREME COURT RELIED ITS DECISION ARTICLE 64, IF YOUR LORDSHIPS WILL KINDLY PERMIT ME TO READ THE ARTICLE 64 THEN I WILL DEMONSTRATE TO THE COURT THAT THE FRAMERS OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION NEVER CONTEMPLATED, NEVER, I REPEAT, NEVER CONTEMPLATED THAT A SITTING PRESIDENT WHILE IN OFFICE SEEKING RE-ELECTION SHOULD COME UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 64 SECTIONS 1 AND 2, EVEN 3 BECAUSE OF C.I.16 THAT YOU RELIED ON----YOUR LORDSHIPS, THE HEADING----CHALLENGING ELECTION OF PRESIDENT---SECTION 1 PROVIDES THAT COUNSEL READS OUT.
ATUGUBA: MR. AMEKUDZI, SINCE YOU RESPECT THE SACROSANCTSY OF THE CONSTITUTION, IT IS NECESSARY TO DRAW YOUR ATTENTION TO THE FACT THAT THE CONSTITUTION YOU ARE SEEKING TO DEFEND IS DIVIDED INTO ARTICLES AND SECTIONS ONLY IN THE TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS, AS YOU DON'T TRANSPOSE THE TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS ARRANGEMENT TO THE MAIN BODY OF THE CONSTITUTION. YOU HAVE TO BE SACROSANCT ALL THE WAY.
AMEKUDZI: THANK YOU.
(----RESERVED THE OTHER PROCEEDINGS LATER BUT TO TOUCH DIRECTLY ON TONY LITHUR AND TSATSU TSIKATA SUBMISSIONS)
TONY LITHUR: I THINK I AM TEMPTED TO SAY "RESQUI SALO QUITO,". I THINK YOUR LORDSHIPS HAVE MADE IT ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THAT THE REVIEW JURISDICTION OF THIS COURT OUGHT TO BE INVOKED PROPERLY, I THINK THIS MATTER SHOULD BE DISMISSED. I HAVE NOTHING USEFUL TO IT. AND I MUST SAY THAT IT IS REVIEWED ON EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES. IN THE AFFIDAVIT NOTHING HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED TO SHOW THAT THESE CIRCUMSTANCES FOR REVIEW OF YOUR LORDSHIPS' EARLIER DECISION.
TSATSU TSIKATA: MY LORDS, I BELIEVE THE ISSUE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ARTICLES OR CLAUSES OR SECTIONS, BUT IT HAS TO DO WITH SOMEONE WISHING TO BE AMICUS CURIAE AND AS WE INDICATED PREVIOUSLY, THE PRESIDENT IS REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL AND I THINK THE NATURE OF THE APPLICATION IS IN THE NATURE OF INTERMEDDLING AND DOES NOT SATISFY ANY OF THE RULES AND WE THEREFORE RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR IT TO BE DISMISSED.
ATUGUBA: WELL, HIS APPLICATION IS NOT ENTIRELY FRIVOLOUS, IN SENSE THAT HE WAS SAYING THAT THIS POINT EVEN IF HE COULD NOT COME IN, THE COURT ITSELF OUGHT TO TAKE UP THE POINT, YOU SEE, TO THAT EXTENT, I THINK THERE IS AN ARGUABLE POINT THERE.
IN FACT, YOU KNOW THE FIRST EVER PRESIDENTIAL PETITION IN THIS COUNTRY CAME IN 1969 ON VERY SIMILAR GROUNDS AND IT WAS BROUGHT AGAINST THE ATTORNEY GENERAL, NOT THE PRESIDENT, SO IT IS NOT ALL THAT WISHY-WASHY, BUT, WELL WE HEARD YOUR SUBMISSIONS.
(----OTHER PROCEEDINGS RESERVED FOR FURTHER DISCUSSION)
THAT AT THIS TIME AND TIME MATERIAL, I AM RESPECTFULLY RESTING MY CASE AND ALSO URGING THE SUPREME COURT ITSELF AND ALL THE MEDIA HOUSES THAT COVERED THE PROCEEDINGS TO PUBLISH THE FULL EXCERPTS OF THE PROCEEDINGS AND SINCE TO EVERY ISSUE THERE ARE TWO SIDES TO IT, THEREFORE CALLING ON ALL CONCERNED IN THIS RELATED MATTER TO COME OUT WITH THEIR SIDES ALSO.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.
GOD BLESS GHANA AND LONG LIVE GHANA !

Justice Vida Akoto Bamfo
Justice Mrs. Vida Akoto-Bamfo, one of the judges who dismissed all the claims brought by the petitioners in the landmark Presidential Election Petition, appears to have de-emphasized the importance of pink sheets in elections in her judgment.
Dr. Afari-Gyan declared John Dramani Mahama winner of the December 2012 presidential elections using results recorded on the Statement of Poll and Declaration of Results forms popularly called pink sheets.
However, in Justice Akoto-Bamfo’s opinion, pink sheets cannot solely be relied on without recourse to the register or the verification machine if one wants to trace the incidence of over-voting or voting without biometric verification – two of the claims that formed the basis for the petition.
Justice Akoto-Bamfo also held in her 21-page judgment that an injustice would perpetrated on the people if the petitioners’ request that because some Presiding Officers failed to sign pink sheets the results should be annulled, was granted.
“Although it is not disputed that the pink sheet was the basic document for the elections it cannot however, be said to be conclusive. It is important to note that an election is not an event, but a process and that the pink sheet derived its source from the Biometric Voters Register. It should therefore be the reference point for a discussion of any issue under this category,” she added.
“Therefore where a dispute arises as to whether a voter had been verified, the best evidence should be the verification machine. Even if the pink sheet were the primary document, it is not conclusive; for it is my respectful view that prints-out from the verification device would have put to rest any arguments as to whether those persons went through the verification process or not,” Justice Akoto-Bamfo held.
Defending the failure of Presiding Officer to sign pink sheets, Justice Akoto-Bamfo said “in my view, visiting the sins of some public official on innocent citizens who have expressed their choice freely would run counter to the principle of universal adult suffrage, one of the pillars of our democracy, and perpetrate an injustice.”
According to Justice Akoto-Bamfo, it is not for the court to determine who occupies the presidency, but rather the citizenry must have that preserve.
“Government, in a democratic system of governance, derives its life from the people and that sacred nexus is made manifest in the electoral system. Among the fundamental precepts in a democracy is the ability to hold periodic free and fair elections together with an effective judicial oversight, bearing in view however, that, as a basic principle, it should not be for the court to determine who occupies the highest office of the land, the presidency; it is the preserve of the citizens.
“Elections therefore offer the citizenry the opportunity to express their satisfaction or otherwise with an incumbent leader or a political party. It is no wonder that this challenge, arising out of the exercise of those rights, has caught the imagination of all Ghanaians.”
Over-voting
Touching on over-voting, Justice Akoto-Bamfo held that it was clear in the circumstances that the total number of polling stations under the category had been reduced by at least 2, by virtue of the KPMG Report, stressing, “Neither the 128,262 nor the 130,136 could have remained unchanged.
“In Court, Dr. Bawumia testified that there had been a number of deletions. He tendered various lists of deleted polling stations. Under Exhibit C-C1-C11, he listed 44 polling stations under this category as having been deleted. These deletions would certainly have affected the number of votes to be annulled. Subsequent thereto, another list of 704 polling stations was tendered as Exhibit D.
“Clearly, the number of polling stations to be affected, and more importantly, the numbers of votes to be affected would see a reduction. One has to bear in mind that numbers are of the essence since they must be used to measure the effect of the irregularity, if any. In this instance however, one cannot determine with precision the number of votes in issue.
“It bears stating that whereas the 2nd respondent denied that there was over-voting, the 3rd respondent did not only deny but went further to assert that there were patent, clerical and sometimes arithmetical errors in the recording which had no material effect on the actual votes publicly cast, sorted, counted and recorded (Paragraph 15 (iii) of the affidavit of Johnson Asiedu filed on 15th April 2013).”
Defining over-voting
Justice Akoto-Bamfo said that even though, in the main, the various definitions offered by both the petitioners and the respondents placed emphasis on the register and ballot paper, the petitioners limited themselves exclusively to what appeared on the face of the pink sheet.
“I am fortified in this view by the fact that all the political parties were given copies of the voters register which the various polling agents of the major political parties carried to the polling stations on the days the elections were held. These pieces of evidence were not challenged.
“Indeed it is common knowledge that the polling agents who were at the polling stations checked the names of persons who were verified and issued with the ballots. Having regard to their role as watchdogs to check impersonation, multiple voting and certification of the results (they had the right to protest by refusing to sign the pink sheet) as provided for under C. I. 75 Regulation 19 (3) coupled with the voting procedures, publicly sorting and counting etc; it would not be safe to rely solely on the entries on the face of the pink sheet to establish the incidence of over-voting.”
She said should any dispute arise as to whether persons who cast the ballot did exceed the number on the voters register, disregarding the register, the genesis of the pink sheet itself, will result in an error.
“Indeed there was ample evidence that several errors were made by the presiding officers in making the entries. Many of the entries were made in error.”
She held that in some cases, columns were wrongly filled, others were left blank; while yet in others, the figures and words hardly matched.
“It was evident that some of the errors could simply be corrected by entering the figures in the right columns. Others were sheer errors in the arithmetic. “Dr. Bawumia left the court in no doubt that the petitioners were relying solely on the pink sheet to establish cases of over-voting, for, he averred that there were neither protests nor complaints lodged, in terms of the complaints procedures laid out in the governing statute at the polling stations.
“Having regard to the fact that credible evidence was led to show that statistics of ballots issued by the 2nd Respondent to each Region, Constituency and Polling Station were provided to all the political parties whose agents were at the polling station and ticked the names of those verified (in these elections), I am of the view that over-reliance on the pink sheet in the face of errors detected clearly led to a dead end, for one cannot use wrong assumptions or data to arrive at the right conclusions.”
Justice Akoto-Bamfo held that “certainly such multiple inaccuracies cannot be the basis for a finding that there was over-voting. Owing to the mistakes, the pink was manifestly unreliable as a basis for establishing the phenomenon of over voting.”
She said that “none of the polling agents made a report of any irregularity; no evidence was led on ballot box stuffing. And more importantly the ballots were cast and their polling agents attested to the results.
“While the presiding officers obviously did make some mistakes and clerical errors, no mischief or advantage can be attributed thereto. Substantially the voting, counting and tallying of votes were carried to a high degree of accuracy.”
Justice Akoto-Bamfo concluded on over-voting that the questions of which polling stations were affected and how many results have to be annulled were questions that the petitioners failed to answer under the category of over-voting and therefore declined the invitation to annul any votes under the category.
Absence of signatures of Presiding Officers
On absence of signatures, Justice Akoto-Bamfo said that even though the petitioners have claimed some of the pink sheets were unsigned by some Presiding Officers, the respondents essentially did not deny that in some cases the Presiding Officers failed to sign the pink sheets.
“Indeed the 2nd respondent tendered Exhibit SA4, a National Summary by Region Results of sheets not signed by the Presiding Officers. According to the said Exhibit, 905 of the pink sheets were indeed not signed by the Presiding Officers. Of the 2009 the pink sheets the petitioners claimed were not signed by the presiding officers, 1,989 were signed by the agents of the candidates.
“Having admitted that there were at least 905 polling stations in which presiding officers failed to append their signatures, the petitioners were relieved of the duty to call further evidence on the issue.
“Article 49 is couched in mandatory terms. Undoubtedly it is an entrenched provision, which can properly be amended in accordance with the procedure set out under Article 290 of the Constitution. Article 49 sets out in detail the duties of the presiding officers and the polling agents immediately after the close of the poll in any public election or referenda. Under Article 45 (c) of the Constitution, the Electoral Commission is vested with the power to conduct and supervise all public elections and referenda.
“Article 51 stipulates that the 2nd respondent shall make regulations for the effective performance of its functions; particularly for the conduct of public elections among others.
“It is evident that even though Article 51 vests the power in the E.C to make regulations for the conduct of the elections; it is only under Article 49 that the steps to be followed by the presiding officers and the polling agents, after the close of the polls, are set out in detail.”
Justice Akoto-Bamfo said since the provision was couched in mandatory terms, clearly where the signature of the presiding officer failed to appear, it did not admit of any argument, on a literal interpretation of the said article, that there had been a breach and therefore the results ought to be nullified.
“However, it has been held in a long line of decisions that a strict, narrow, technical and legalistic approach to interpretation of the Constitution, the embodiment of our hopes and aspirations, must be avoided.
“Was it the intention of the framers of the Constitution that persons who have exercised their rights under art. 42 by going through the electoral procedures, registered as voters, had their names on the register, participated in the election by casting their votes which have been publicly counted, recorded and announced, should have such votes not ‘counted’ on account of the sins of one public officer?
“We have freely chosen the democratic form of governance in which sovereign power resides in the people as a whole. Under that system each citizen must be afforded a genuine opportunity, through the conduct of free and fair elections, to determine who his leaders or representatives should be.
“An election being a process as opposed to it being an event, where all the stages have been gone through and therefore the elections could be said to have been substantially held in accordance with the regulations, to nullify the results on this ground per se, would amount to putting in the power of some unscrupulous presiding officer in some polling station to nullify the solemn act of the whole constituency by his single act of omission.”
She said since the Constitution required that both the Presiding Officers and polling agents sign, looking at their duties, and obviously the reason for signatures in terms of the credibility of the process, “a purposive interpretation would not defeat the objectives of Article 49(3), in that even though the Presiding Officer had failed to sign, the polling agent’s signature, to my mind, is a bold declaration for the integrity of the whole electoral process.”

Nothing uplifting or good comes from NDC. So far all NDC has been able to offer the nation during this campaign is one house, one meter. And surely, that is going to do wonders for the economy. Amazing!!!

Organisations including the IMF, WTO, World Bank etc, and economists from various firms come to listen to Bawumia whenever he gives a lecture, that is an endorsement of his credibility in international circles. That is the only source of the real state of Ghana's economy and they love him for that, they never call him a liar. Who would come to listen to you if you gave a lecture? It is the small minded half illiterate NDC twats with sharp teeth like Ablakwa, Ayindoho, Kofi Adams, Asiedu Nketia etc who call him a liar. Vote these clueless recalcitrants out in December. Bawumia is wiser and knowledgeable than the president and all his NDC thieving cabinet put together!

I wonder if the NDC members attended different schools from that of the NPP.You can perfectly see that the NDC party is full of idiots,they speak from their anus. From the President to the ordinary members of the NDC are all stupid fools. The only slogan is Lairs, Corruption,Looting, Sharing and Insulting.with their disgraceful nonentity president Koo Atopahene Mahamah.Shame! The president who wants to pull every woman's pants down,He wants to enter every woman's hole,what a bad luck president. He will vomit all the stolen money and his appointees will all rent rooms in Nsawan prisons."Those Who Laughed First Will Cry At The End Of The Game" A word to the wise is enough.

Listen to that idiot of a so- called deputy secretary [ efo Koku Anyidoho], of that failed party and government of NDC headed by a clueless, confused, visionless and shivering president who is starring glaringly at his defeat written on the walls.Anyidoho could definitely not have listened to Dr Bawumia because, as usual, Bawumia was going to 'spit fire' that is burning the economy and for which reason we [Ghanaians] are struggling to survive.That was possibly going to trigger Anyidoho's blood pressure and or compel him to sip in more of his much loved and traditionally used to local gin, 'Akpeteshie'.So,the earlier Anyidoho stayed away from listening to Bawumia live, the better for him[Anyidoho].The effect of listening to, or watching something live that is not suitable for one is usually more hurtful and damaging than reading about it or watching a replay of it later on.Whhether Anyidoho likes it or not, Dr Bawumiia is more intelligent than him and whether Anyidoho likes it or not, NDC will lose the elections because we[ Ghanaians] are suffering too much, period.Enough of the hardship,enough of it.Long live Ghana.Amen

Upon all Bawumia's Phd in Economics he doesn't know the top priority for Ghana.What Ghana wants now is energy safety but Bawumia said "NPP will introduce a 10 year power master plan to solve the dumso crisis".This statement alone can jeopardise Nana Addo's entire campaign.Thank you.

Talking of Witty economic giants world wide, Bawumia can never be overlooked. such men of class will speak opponents insght children to attack his personality,how sad. But facts remain facts.
Koko you wouldn't have understood it anyway beside you were drunk.
The lectures was for Smart genuine Patriotic Citizens of Ghana Not Thugs.

APIO MAN .

Challe please - stop embarrassing yourself first, and then stop embarrassing NDC even more. we know they are devoid of wisdom and truth. When koku talks, just laugh and walk away. we all understand that the man is an idiot.

NPP IS FORCING BAWUMIA TO EXEGERRATE SOMEHTING WHICH IS 2 TO 200: THAT IS WHY I RUEFED TO WATCH HIM:HE TALKS FOR NPP BUT NOT GHANA
yeah, it spoils his repetration as an economist
HOW CAN ANY NDC UNDERSTAND WHAT BAWU IS SAYING ?? GIVE THEM 1000 YEARS THEY CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND SO THE SAY IT IS LIES WHEN IT DOES NOT FAVOUR THEM... SEE THE EGLISH THE NDC GUY HERE HAS SPEWED HERE! FOR REPUTATION .
What is repetration?Repetration from where? The word you are trying to use is reputation. Please pray for Free SHS to come so you can get some education and stop following NDC.
You have to go back to school your spelling is very bad e.g. repetration. Wrong it's reputation.Brains like you and the NDC will never understand the reputable economist
With this kind of English, how can you understand him?
I will question anyone's sanity if he listened to Bawumia. Bawumia does not know that even Nana values him only for lies! And he thinks the only way he can buy acceptance is to play the fool. His good brothers should tell him ...

Even if you listen to him you will not understand him because he is talking economics you Koku can not comprehend what he says. Period. I am for Bawumia nyebro!

You did not listen because big brain was speaking you being the small brain will not understand it. Simple
The simple truth is Kofi doesn't understand economics.
The lecture wasn't meant for idiots but right thinking people of economy and management studies. You rather used the time to plan how to steal more from state coffers and the elections. You wouldn't have understood anyway.
You didn't waste time to listen bcus ur heart will be broken about de poor performance of your corrupt gov't. Anyway i thought u said u were sending bawumia to court, pls we r still waiting.
See this foolish man
Is it correct that Koku Anyidoho was driving taxi in London? Yes, it would have been a waste of time for him because he wouldn't have understood a thing because he's a duffer!
A murderer will kill u, a thief will steal from u but u don't know were u stand with a LIAR! Hao Pinkibawusheet
KOKU ANYIDOHO is too illetrate in economics to understand what dr Bawumia said
Can Koku tell Ghanaians where he got the money for his Oyarifa mansion. Perhaps, too busy putting the finishing touches than to listen to Dr Bawumia
The concept, topic and the top-notch statistics were beyond you Koku.
Tweeaa, you think this Bawumia's presentation was for kindergarten kids?
Koku, you did not listen because you are an economic illiterate.
Ask Amissah-Arthur to explain Bawumia's speech to you, Kwasea, fiafitor.
Koku would never have understood anything Alhaji Bawumia said anyway, because he is just not strong up there and it is an established fact.
Koku you simply can't comprehend with Dr.Bawumia's ideas. His is not about churning lies on radio and television. You are the Biggest Idiot I have ever seen in politics!
ANYIDOHO is SO STUPID OR RATHER SO FOOLISH. THE FACT THAT HE WROTE ABOUT IT MEANS HE WASTED HIS TIME ANYWAY.
LOGIC LOGIC, ANYI. LOGIC. YOU JUST DON'T HAVE LOGIC HENCE YOU CAN'T USE IT.
This useless people are worrying Ghana pupils. Foooooool kwasia l will kill u.
Koku Anyidoho, Bawumiah's lecture was not meant for obtuse people like you and NDC imkbeciles. It is better you stayed at home because you do not have the intellectual ability to understand what Dr. Bawumiah said anyway.
pig come out with your figures nd lets compare..shallow minded pig
LOOK AT THE LIST OF NDC PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME OUT TO 'RUBBISH' BAWUMIA'S SPEECH.
IF BAWUMIA WAS NOT A THORN ON THEIR SIDE, WHY ARE THEY LINING UP TO RIDICULE HIS SPEECH?
NDC, FULL OF SEMI-ILLITERATES.
BECAUSE YOU ARE USELESS IGNORANT AND CANT LEARN ANYTHING ONLY YOUR STUPIDITY PROPAGANDA FOOLISH ASS
If you didn't listen to Bawumia, how did you know about issues he spoke about?
Some of these NDC illiterates think talking about a nation's ecomini is like filling potholes. Each one of them stands up and talks trash.

Nothing uplifting or good comes from NDC. So far all NDC has been able to offer the nation during this campaign is one house, one meter. And surely, that is going to do wonders for the economy. Amazing!!!

Yes we know because of stupidity you won't if it's like you love Ghana like you will listen to Bawumia a great man in Ghana we love you Dr thank you
you are an iliterate only wise men listening to dr bawumia ofui anyidaho idiot senseless
BAWUMIA´S SPEECHES ARE MEANT FOR WISE AND HONEST PEOPLE WHO CARES FOR THE FUTURE OF OUR NATION.
I believe you are a very respectable politician in Ghana. Anytime you are to make a statement, think about it. Your statements can go a long way to educate the youth on constructuve politics Ghana needs now.
who said he needed a blockhead like you to listen to him.
Nonsense. Truth hurts!
The mouth is like a gate to hell. It only knows how to spew out fire. By the way Bawumia does not need your attention.
EVEN YOUR BOSS LISTENED TO HIM SO WHO CARES IF YOU DIDNT MAY BE YOU WERE BOOZING AROUND TOWN
THE TROKOSI IDIOTIC SLAVE WON'T WASTE HIS TIME LISTENING TO BAWUMIA, BUT HE WOULD LISTEN TO MAHAMA KOFI ADAMS, BUKOM BANKU, AYITTEY POWERS AND THE REST OF THE NDC MORONS. AYIGBE FIAFITOR.
Organisations including the IMF, WTO, World Bank etc, and economists from various firms come to listen to Bawumia whenever he gives a lecture, that is an endorsement of his credibility in international circles. That is the on ...

Koku you threatened to go to court on the voters register. What's stopping you from going. Was it an empty boast?

I did the same by not listening to bookish garbage coming from book long Bawumia. The guy belongs to the classroom.
Is Koku Anyidoho is sick u can see from his face he got Nasuoben kwaseia beba
How can u idiot can u listen to wiseman because u belongs to nkwasiafuo party no vision ur President thief
Kwakuo , who listens to you ?? Only corrupt NDC needs you !!!!
stupid
NDC and thrash talks, he will present state of the cash u guys chop.
Why would you? Light and darkness have nothing in common!!!
And so what? If stupid person like you did not listen to him what impact would it have? Your days are numbered.
Where is Nana Addo? I guess he is gone to visit relatives abroad. His whole family is cursed because of what they did to Dr. Nkrumah. As for Bawumia he is continually pouring curses on himself.
Koku Anyidoho said he did not waste his time to listen to the Bawumia lecture, so what is he commenting on? Such fools can only be found in NDC.
don't waste your time koku because the difference between Dr.and you is crystal clear. so will not understand what he is saying. because better brain is talking.
Koku Anyidaho said he didn't waste his time listening to Dr Bawumiah's lectures.Yes a fool like you (Anyidaho) don't have time for better things. Whatever Dr Bawumia has said come true,but because the NDC members don't want t ...
