Right,NPP is irrelevant so long as Akuffo Addo and that idiot called Kodwo Owusu Afriyie remain its leaders.

Saying they have boycotted Akatsi and Buem is one of their tricks knowing very well they have no chance not even close winning the two seats which like any other seat in the Volta region is a done deal for whoever wins NDC primary in each constituency.

Hopefully NDC will allow Kofi Adam to join the other outspoken guys now in parliament such as Okudjeto,Quarshiga,Ayariga,Jamal,Haruna and others to make NDC's voice heard in parliament.

The Supreme Court will give verdict about the stolen elections. It is a shame for old man Djan as he leaves office with this cloud of shame on his head. Yes it is true that the NDC as a corrupt as they are will accept the verdict as a win. You can tell how quickly they rushed to complete the inaugural of Mahama as president. They hope that by doing so will stop the Supreme court from giving the verdict. Wrong. NDC will be shocked.

THE NPP IS VERY CUNNING. IF THEY CLAIM THAT ELECTIONS IN THOSE CONSTITUENCIES WERE RIGGED THEN THIS IS A BIG CHANCE TO PROVE IT BY BEING VERY VIGILANT SO THAT THE OUTCOME OF THE BI-ELECTIONS WILL BE A POINTER OR INDICATION THAT REALLY THERE WAS SOME LEVEL OF FRAUD IN THE PAST ELECTIONS AND THAT COULD GIVE SOME CREDENCE OR CREDIBILITY TO THEIR PETITION. WHY THEN ARE THEY SHYING AWAY FROM THIS BI-ELECTION. ONLY ONE REASON. THEY KNOW IT WILL GO TO MAKE NONSENSE OF THEIR CLAIMS IN THE PETITION. SOTHEIR PLAN IS LET US STAY AWAY AND LEAVE THE DOUBTS IN PEOPLE'S MINDS. TO HELL WITH THEM. AFTER ALL THEY HAVE ONCE BOYCOTTED A WHOLE ELECTION AND THE COUNTRY MOVED ON WITHOUT THEM. SO WHAT IS THERE TO WORRY ABOUT THIS TIME ROUND? NOTHING!!! WE GHANAIANS DON'T CARE!!!

Ghanaians are tired of the NPP, they know they' lose seriously. That's why they are boycotting it. Afari Gyan is a very honest gentleman. EC is a very credible organisation. It's the NPP that cannot be truthful.

state in the Akan sense. And yes Asanteman is bigger than Asante region and transcends regional boundaries. It comprises places in the Volta region such as Worawora, places in the Eastern region such as Koforidua (New Juaben), most parts of Bono-Ahafo (formerly Western Asante) and many many many other places. and of which land are you talking about? The Ewes do not own one inch of Akan land in the Volta region. In fact, they are in the minority in the Volta region (at least as far as the northern part of Volta region is concerned).

PNDC/NDC is the party, that have carried out more boycotts than any other political party in the history of Ghana.

In the 2004 elections the NDC challenged the election results at the supreme court. Mills and Rawlings boycotted the inauguration of President Kufuor. Victor smith then announced they wouldn`t even watch it on TV.

Prior to the elections in 2008 Mills warned that the NDC would not entertain any attempt by the NPP to steal the verdict of the people again.He warned the nation to expect mayhem if the party suspects the results of the December polls were rigged in favour of the NPP. He threatened to turn Ghana into Kenya if elections were rigged in favour of the NPP.

Your NDC even boycotted the state of the nation address by President Kufuor in 2007. Needless to mention the numerous times when they boycotted parliament as well.

I dont see, what is wrong with NPP following the legal means to address their grievances. I dont see, why NDC is talking nonesense like the NPP is disgracing the President. If they know they have legitimacy of the people, why should this process lead to a disgrace? It should rather enhance the image of President Mahama, when it comes out that he won on his own merit. Instead of talking substance to the issue, they are coming up with wild and baseless accusations. If its a disgrace to the President, then its an admission, that the integrity of our election is questionable and if anything should come out, that the Preisdent and EC stole the election, then it would be a disgrace to the President.

NPP is making a fool of itself. Their MP's will be taking their first salaries and the numerous allowances running into tenths of thousand Ghana cedis but yet contesting the very election that made them MP's.

They shouldn't have allowed themselves to be sworn in as parliamentarians at all. In that case we will all know they are really challenging the 2012 election.

EC and the NDC are "tiiifs" and Ghanaians should shout at them. Rigging of elections has always been NDC's way of doing things. They'll steal until they kingdom come!

The NDC by the aid of the bogus Afari Gyan-led EC have been rigging elections since 1992 and feel so easy or comfortable and poised to steal the ballot all the time.

They believe that once the elections results are hastly declared, after everything, nothing can be done about the results. They've rigged elections for far too long that they've become crafty in the act.

Election fraud is a serious crime and the EC and their partners in crime should take good notice of. Enough of the election fruad is enough. Absolutely!

The NPP cannot lend its support to an EC that's corrupt. Ghana cannot move forward when our electoral system is full of people with rotten motives. Noway!

Look at these Cantata actors; jaguar jokers fooling their foot soldiers. NPP can't win an Akatsi seat; NPP can't win the Buem seat either. Not in a millennium.

If they are so pis*ed off with the EC, shouldn't they resign from Parliament? No, they'd not do that. They lobbied and got Deputy Speaker position. Was it not the same EC that conducted the current elections for Parliament? Was it not the same EC that conducted the 2000 and 2004 elections that saw NPP win both? Who is advising NPP at all? What is the next Act in the cantata, NPP? We are watching.

I do not belong to any political party in Ghana, but I am glad that the NPP have sent their grievances to the Supreme Court for investigation regarding the December 7, 2012 General Elections. I think it is wrong for any government or political party to steal elections. When an election is stolen, what it means is that the people's verdict has been taken away from them. This state of affair is bad any any country. Elections are supposed to be fair and clean and should not be rigged by anybody in authority. I hope that the Supreme Court will come out with a fair and credible verdict on this case. God Bless Ghana.

FACT IS FACT. IF YOU CANNOT DO IT DO NOT BLAME YOUR MOTHER. THE FACT IS THAT THE NPP KNOWS VERY WELL THAT IT CANNOT WIN THE TWO SEATS IN THE VOLTA REGION WHERE THE BYE-ELECTIONS ARE TO BE CONDUCTED. THEY SHOULD THEREFORE STOP ATTRIBUTING THEIR INABILITY TO CONTEST THE SEATS TO THEIR PENDING PETITION AT THE SC. FANCY THE BYE-ELECTIONS WERE TO BE HELD IN THE ASHANTI REGION WOULD THEY HAVE CITED THE PENDING PETITION AS A BAR TO THEIR NON-PARTICIPATION? SOON, WE SHALL KNOW THESE HYPOCRITES!

I think you should ask your parliamentarians to boycot parliament and lose their GHC7,000.00 pm and see what will happen to your call. Those seating there accepted Afari's result for being there. Their own were not stolen. By your calculation of 1 in 8, you should have got 240 seats in Parliament whilest NDC + the rest 35?

Those are the areas you cannot have any vote. So to say you are boycotting elections there is just to confirm you have no vote there. Anyway, you can please yourselves.
