  • SULLEY 11 years ago

    IT IS QUITE CLEAR THAT THE SUPPORTERS OF THE NPP ARE HIGH. THE COCAINE BREATH OF THEIR MESSIAH IS CAUSING A DANGEROUS DIFFUSION. THEREFORE THEY INSULT ANYONE WHO DOES NOT SMOKE WEE OR MIX HIS TEA WITH COCAINE

  • BlindMan 11 years ago

    Live Telecast is unnecessary and will never happen. The Supreme Court will play its role accordingly, Fair and Simple!
    At this point, whoever thinks, 'Lawyer' Nana Akufo-Addo has a 'chance' must be in HiberNATION. Reasons fo ...

  • Selassie Dzokoto 11 years ago

    Ben Ephson as usual predicted a mahama win so his monthly fat pay check will not be curtailed. The multi-million dollar question is, what will go wrong if proceedings are telecast live for all to see? Won't it rather calm ner ...

  • VERY OPPOSITE 11 years ago

    Live telecasting is to bring information together for the use of the people of the nation. fetching water with basket is loosing the water outright. I don't know why any reasonable person should compare them.

    No opaque actions. Live tlecast improves transparency. Sunshine is he best disinfectant. Ben Epheson is a weak advocate on openness!
