I will not praise Kofi Ata on this biased article. After the victory of Mahama, Kofi seem to up the Akan agenda of innuendo attacking the judicial system.
Is Kofi saying he doesn't know the motive of the petitioners in Ghana? Kofi is telling us that Mahama is not the legitimately elected president and therefore not the people's choice, my goodness.
Kofi, I admit you write very educative pieces but your stand on the elections results in Ghana is bias and worrying.

Where did he say that Mahama is not the legitimate elected president in his article? You see when you know you are guilty or have a sense of guilt, everything you hear would sound like accusation to you. It's like indulging in a sinful act and going to church, everything the priest says would sound to you like he's talking to you directly. Don't stoop so low to bring tribalism into this because that is a losers argument.

Why heap praises on the Keyan Supreme Court for quickly taking a decision on Raila Odinga's presidential petition?Their constitution sets out clearly the maximum days within which a decision on a presidential petition should be decided.Our constitution does not impose any maximum time frame within which a decision should be taken on a presidential petition.We should remember that the last Kenyan presidential election was followed by a nationwide violence which saw inter-tribal killings resulting in the death of thousands of Kenyans. The short constitutional time limit to resolve any presidential election dispute is meant to prevent the reoccurrence of election violence in Kenya. My main worry about our Supreme Court is how the judges dress.I believe strongly that the red gowns and the wigs they wear and inherited from the British are purely colonial and outdated.The Kenyans have changed theirs and they look smart,businesslike and untimidating.

So should we wait till there is violence before we address the issue around the length of time it takes for presidential electoral disputes to be resolved? Does it not make sense to learn from the Kenyan election violence and amend our constitution to avoid such a situation or as usual will we be reactive? Or do you think Ghana cannot experience the violence that happened in Kenya? We should not start getting complacent.

Kufour is never Ghana,s corrupt president ever. Chairman Rawlings was the longest serving president, and he,s undoubtedly one of the most corrupt presidents Ghana has ever had.
Needless to say, he was the same person who stalled Ghana,s development aspirations for nearly two decades. The reason why there,s not enough power to run our factories and homes, and water to serve the same.
Moreover, he,s on record for imposing on Ghanians a totalitarian constitution under the guise of democracy, vesting all the powers that be in the executive.
Another reason why Ghana has not experienced any meaningfull gowth. For it is only when power is decoupled that you see a quicker and proper development in country. Examples of these are all over for everybody to see. Unless there is a concerted effort to review this bogus and post dictatorial constitution, the nation will continue to wallow in abject poverty for ever, and this will in the long run affect a whole generation, as we are already seeing. Nevertheless, the politicians knowing the loopholes in the constiution will continue to exploit them to their advantage.

Another area that any constitutional review should cover is the nature of the "majority required for elctoral victory." Bear in mind that the "Danquah-Busia" Regions (Ashanti-Eastern regions) constitute a "permanent majority" in terms of their total combined population and ethnic composition. Any political party that enjoys overwhelming political support in these TWO regions, stands a good chance of electoral victory over the EIGHT remaining Regions! Shouldn't we consider a stipulation that "a simple majority of 51% should include a 'majority victory in at least, FOUR out of TEN Region"?

Thats a good point my compatriot.The achilles heel of Gh is this self defeating belief in things that favors one's interests.The electoral hegemony of one region and the absurdity of lacking a clause for a timeframe in electoral petitions are a few examples.As good as they may be,things that favour oneself also rob you of chances to grow and learn.You only grow when you're as objective & dispassionate as possible.Life(and success) was never meant to always come on ya terms.Unless get a neutral & stringent constitution we will always box ourselves into corners and rob ourselves the chance to build character & resilience.Weak people never built gr8t empires or gr8t entities.Even the finest steel has to go thru great fires & the gr8t diamonds are built thru gr8t pressures.Unless Gh adopts a gr8t,stringent & neutral constitution with independent institutions we will always be a failed nation.Unless Ghanaians learn to live with pains and very demanding rules both individually and as a nation,we will always wonder why we're still a 3rd world nation after 56yrs and a full 6yrs before the runaway success that is Singapore.A new stricter constitution is a good start.

I solely blame all Ghana,s underdevelopment on its constitution. The constitution as it stands now seems to satisfy one person,s interest, the military dictator who took us on the journey to democracy. That was why it was carefully designed to give him so much powers, living the opposition as the only checks and balances. Ridiculously it gave him the power to appoint everybody in the country including municipal and district chief executies.

THE PETITIONERS TOLD ALL OF GHANA (THROUGH GABBY OTHERE DARKO) THAT THEY WANTED THE HEARING TO BE HELD IN THE STADIUM SO ALL AND SUNDRY COULD FOLLW THE HEARING. THEN THEY WENT TO COURT TO ASK THE COURT TO HEAR THEIR CASE IN CAMERA (FOR JUSTICE ATUGUBA TO RECLUSE HIMSELF). THE PETITIONERS WOULD NOT DO DISCLOSURES AND WANTED TO AMBUSH.

Even Obama said it in Accra that running elections every four years and follow no rule of law is nothing but a sham that, to guard against this sham, we need to build strong institutions.
In today's Ghana, not a single institution is up to their names as they stink with corruption and mediocrity way more than the gutters than run in front of them.
Since the 1966 coup, Ghanaians has been known as country full of leaders who dance to "his masters' voice". We chose a form of democracy that we can all be comfortable with, knowing full well that we lack the supporting institutions and the balls to jail anyone who flaunts the law regardless of their fake status.
Gaining independence before other nations means nothing now, as more and more African nations doing things that our leaders have no balls and guts and the innovation and the brain to bring to fruition.
Is our judiciary sucks? You bet.

Mr Kofi Atta or who you call yourself much as I welcome your article on our constitutional flaws of hearing of fair judgement from the SC verdict on our election results. You welly stated ghana 4th republic constitution was drafted under P/NDC time under JJ regime. But i wish to know what did NPP legal gurus did to address this over the 8 years rule of Kuffour and for that matter leadership of NPP. If history would remind you almost every election in Ghana since this 4th republic initiation there is always challenged of election result yet no legal experts in the country have ever come out to challenge this timing factor of SC defacto delayance.Particularlly both NPP and NDC becouse of power drunk.
All that they know is let's close Togo boarder to block NDC support base.
Is good that all this revelations are opening our eyes.
If let's me alone the whole of our constitution need to be redrafted by immediate referendum. Most of our lawyers too are out of mordern legal practice. Most of them are just specialist in chieftancy and land litigations which was the money catching area post colonia earer and need to do PDC.

The article above identified a major flaw in the 1992 Ghanaian Constitution as the lack of a specific time frame within which electoral disputes must be determined. As a result of this failing and in my opinion, the case of the disputed electoral outcome may continue to linger in the Supreme Court through the life of this parliament. There were similar electoral issues encountered by both Ghana and Kenya, such as (a) Biometric Voter Verification equipment breakdown (b) Extension of voting period (c) Use of manual verification to complement the process and (d) Discrepancies, if any, in the documentation and collation of electoral results in certain constituencies. These questions need to be asked and determined:

Was the EC the only person or body mandated by the constitution to declare election results?
If so, the EC’s position must be acknowledged and the constitution amended to forbid any other person from doing same during elections.

What were the electoral rules of electoral engagement?

Would electoral votes be rendered invalid if pink sheets were not signed in polling stations but voting witnessed by observers and returning officers at the station?

Was the Biometric Voter Verification meant to determine voter identity and where the equipment broke down, could manual verification process complement or backup the agreed electronic process, since they both mirror one another in identifying the voter and therefore equal in terms of validity?

Where there is a breakdown of the verification machine should the voter’s right to vote be annulled or not counted as the only verification process left would be manual by hard copy records?

Were the elections fair and conducted within the set rules of the election process?

Were the results justifiable and certified by independent bodies and groups, party representatives?

Did the results fall within acceptable margin of error statistically?

SUPREME COURT
The world is watching the Ghana Supreme court. Already the High court has embarrassed the country when it foolishly ruled to detain the Argentine military warship, a simple case of international law! Whether monies changed hands or the judges sold their heads and buried their necks up in corruption would be judged by posterity.

The onus this time is on the Supreme Court (SC) and therefore the Judiciary to determine the outcome of the electoral dispute saga which has been sat on their bench for 3 month – how long will this linger and how far will they stretch the patience of the electorate? The country cannot afford to waste any more time while the SC continues to adjourn and play ping pong with the county’s fate. The SC should show leadership and authority and not be seen to be weak and not knowing what it is about. Why ask the two parties to agree on memoranda or things they openly disagree on? The parties have come to court because they could not agree on the outcome of the electoral process. The SC should make the determinations and stop dithering and the wasting of precious time which has the propensity to fuel the cloud of uncertainty and ultimately affect the country’s economy.

There is no perfect election anywhere in the world but as long as the results were within the agreed margin of error, it should be statistically significant and therefore acceptable. In the Dec 12 elections, the results were verified and accepted by representatives from all the parties, internal/external and international bodies as being fair. This should have been be accepted by all sides in a democracy.

In the mean time, I would call on fellow Ghanaians to remain calm and accept whatever the SC decides for the sake of our motherland. Should NPP loose this court case, it would not be the end of the party. They live to fight another day as 4 years is just upon us. There are great lessons to be learned by the EC, House of Parliament, the Judiciary and every Ghanaian. Collectively, we would be the wiser in the next polls and this is the price we all pay as a people of one destiny. Destruction and confusion will prolong the return of any political party to power and possibly put it out of reach for everyone and we could all become refugees.

The issue now at stake would be whether or not the disputed figures after disqualifying disputed votes such as damaged and ambiguous ballots will be enough to overturn the outcome of the elections. This must be straight forward to determine and there should be no room for error, cronyism or partisanship.

As well Kofi, don't blame Rawlings for any flaws you perceive make constitution worthless because he Flt Lt Rawlings didn't take part in the drafting of the constitution. The constituent assembly that drafted the constitution and its subsequent acceptance by way of a referendum were made up of Ghanaians. Some of them were lawyers, politicians, ordinary citizens, etc who assembled and drafted the constitution. Later, lawyers sat down and flamed it into what we have as Ghana's 1992 Constitution. Get this right that Rawlings is not a lawyer and though it was his time the constitution was made, he never wrote it. some of the flaws we see now

I personally would like to state arguably that if Ghana doesn't have a taste of a CIVIL WAR to certain extent, she WOULD NEVER LEARN A LESSON.

Our own Kofi Annan was the arbiter for the previous Kenyan Elections which reached the crescendo of a Civil War. Perhaps that culminated the change to their Constitution which has made it possible for their Supreme Court to make the decision.

I many a time struggle to understand why many African Countries try to heap praises on Ghana's so-called Democratic dispensations when of course the officialdom doesn't understand the true tenets of the word "DEMOCRACY".

They even failed to let the Taxpayer, the ATTA MYTHS FAMILY, as well as the Ghanaian People in general know exactly WHAT KILLED THE FORMER PRESIDENT.

In fact WE WERE THE FIRST BLACK AFRICAN COUNTRY TO HAVE INDEPENDENCE, BUT THE LAST TO KNOW WHAT DEMOCRACY AND CIVILIZATION IS ALL ABOUT.

IT IS NOT OVER UNTIL IT IS OVER!!!!

As well Kofi, don't blame Rawlings for any flaws you perceive make constitution worthless because he, Flt Lt Rawlings, didn't take part in the drafting of the constitution. The constituent assembly that drafted the constitution and its subsequent acceptance by way of a referendum were made up of Ghanaians. Some of them were lawyers, politicians, ordinary citizens, etc who assembled and drafted the constitution. Later, lawyers sat down and flamed it into what we have as Ghana's 1992 Constitution. Get this right that Rawlings is not a lawyer and though it was his time the constitution was made, he never wrote it. Some of the flaws we see now are as a result of Ghanaians attitude of impatience for governments in governing and managing our development in every facets of our national life. We rush governments as if everything we need as a nation are already kept in silos and the government is there only to distribute. We are quick to write to condemn but we quickly forget or never realize the part we play in making decisions by governments ad hoc in nature when we make a lot of noise and agitate on every government programme and policy. Don't blame Rawlings.

The NPP knew that a recount would not give them victory. They considered all possible scenarios and came to the ridiculous decision that only disenfranchising 5 million voters from their opponents strong holds can guarantee them victory. That is how come they chose the biblical "Sodom and Gomorrah" method of going back to collect more evidence whenever they realised the figures presented were not enough to achieve their ambition.

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
There couldn't have been any better article than this. The difficulty most silent Ghanaians have on the election dispute concerns the slow pace of the court proceedings.
There are those who sees it as an opportunity to stifle the process. The first and second respondents, and the NDC Party are of the view that they can frustrate the process through unnecessary feet dragging.
The author of the article brought to the fore basic issues that as a country we did not address our minds to, when the Constitution was written which exposes us to our lack of foresight. The article sought to highlight the shortfalls which any critical mind will appreciate.
The issues raised are really important and needs attention. We have to serious weigh the advantages of having the proceedings telecast to avert any doubt at the end of the trial. I believe it will go a long way to educate the citizens of how each party to the dispute put up its defense.
It is really ridiculous and unbelievable that those who claim to have won the elections with clear majority are the ones frustrating the process.
The dispute before the Supreme Court is about the country and not about Nana Addo or John Mahama. Those making irrational comments with regards to the article and their derogatory insults are blind in the minds and intellect. What the NDC and its supporters must understand is that being acidic with their tongues do not change the truth. They must learn to read and understand than being obsessed with hate and vindictiveness. They can hate Nana Addo to the marrow it will changed the truth.
I will hazard an advice to ourselves, whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect. Think little minds!

It took the NPP three weeks to assemble their facts, the EC and the first respondent responded, then joined by the NDC. The petitioners somehow came back requesting for the Supreme Court to grant them access to what is absurd, the respondents' witnesses information and summary of their testimonies plus others. If the petitioners so had incontrovertible evidence as claimed from day one, they would have filed a writ that would been specific and to the point and the Supreme Court would have ruled by now because the statutes enjoined respondents to file a response within 7 days.

For me, the Ghana case is much ado about nothing. There was no fraud at all in the elections. Some political party called NPP think that anytime they loose elections there was cheating, and nothing more. What is painful to some of us is how the nation has been held hostage by this petition and that cast a lot of doubt on our electoral institutions, arguably one of the best in the African Continent.

God will prevail, however, in what happens in Ghana

Definitely no comparision to Kenya's Supreme Court as has just been proven to us all. Ghana's Supreme Court officials have a shameful habit of undully dragging cases in order to frustrate, demoralise and dampen the spirit of all concerned in court procedures.

Initially, Jake Otanka claimed there were irregularities and fraud in 10 constituencies which could push the election to a round off.

It is when that failed that NPP said they found something in 11,916 polling stations. What do u expect the SC to do ? Nonsense

when NPP got to SC, the first thing was to accuse the Presiding judge of tribal bias. Stupidity. Why did NPP retract that tribal nonsense at the Supreme court ? Why didn't Jake maintain the 10 constituencies at the SC ? Nonsense.

Who then is delaying the case and holding Ghana hostage and burning ECG installations, if it is not that evil litigant and arrogant dwarf , Akufo Addo , then who else. Nonsense.

Even if NPP drags the case fore 5 yrs, Ghana will not break apart. God is with us. Nonsense

Kenya's was relatively easier in the light of their bitter experience in the last elections.This SC bearing what happened at the back of their mind had tried to both override the tension and also save land the process.Now that the tension had virtually abated, i will not be surprised if the process takes a rather fast turn.The SC had beautifully set the scene and can take control of the process from next week because the parties were unable to come to an understanding of the issues so the ball is in the court of the SC.They will therefore have no more excuses for the delay.The hard bit had been done and I applaud the SC for the case management so far.

This is the summary of the Kenyan judgment.On the basis of these findings I suspect the ending of the Ghana SC will even be quicker than we think.

1. After extensive deliberations, we are happy to announce the Supreme Court has reached a unanimous decision on all the four issues that fell for determination in presidential election Petition No. 3, 4 and 5 as consolidated.

2. The following is the unanimous decision of the court:

(i) As to whether the presidential election held on March 4th 2013, was conducted in a free, fair, transparent and credible manner, in compliance with the provisions of the Constitution and all relevant provisions of the law; it is the decision of the court that the said elections were indeed conducted in compliance with the Constitution and the law.

(ii) As to whether the 3rd and 4th Respondents were validly elected and declared as President elect and Deputy President elect of the Republic of Kenya respectively, by the Second Respondent in the presidential elections held on the 4th March 2013; it is the decision of the court that the 3rd and 4th respondents were validly elected.

(iii) As to whether the rejected votes ought to have been included in determining the final tally of votes in favour of each of the Presidential candidate by the 2nd Respondent; it is the decision of the court that such rejected votes ought not to have been included in calculating the final tallies in favour of each presidential candidate.

(iv) As to what consequential declarations, orders and reliefs, that this honourable court ought to grant based on the above determinations, the following are the orders of the Court:

a. Petition No.5 of the consolidated petitions is hereby dismissed.

b. Petition No. 4 of the consolidated petitions is hereby dismissed.

c. As to Petition No. 3 of the consolidated petitions, the prayer by the Petitioners seeking a declaration of recomputation of percentages by the 2nd Respondent is declined as the court as no jurisdiction.

d. Regarding orders as to costs, the Court orders that each party bears his/her/it’s own costs.

3. The detailed judgement containing the reasons for decision of the Court will be issued within two weeks from today. 4. Orders accordingly. DATED and DELIVERED at NAIROBI this 30th March, 2013.
