  Great, lets see how you will fare in Mahama's 'rough terrain' Ghana, where there are no rules and its only the nitwits succeed and the hardworking Ghanaian fails! Corruption par none, you cannot wrap ones head around this corrupt environment where politicians think like armed robbers and crooked pastors are glorified as God's right hand men!. Our bureaucracy stinks to the core, so in a nut shell Ghana is a TOLL FREE TOILET and nothing works!. Its all try ni makw3.

  wofa James, our democracy is still young. mind you, it is this sort of attitude you are putting up right now that is not helping us grow i.e. "this is how the situation is, so there is nothing that can be done." put the negative energy into more productive thoughts, that can be actualized. then definately we can show our leaders that they should sit up and work harder. lets not sit on the fence and criticize in the wrong direction. we have a future that should work with or without our leaders. do what you can to help the land, stop looking out for hand outs. when kuffour said Ghanaians are lazy we were crying. with this attitude, aren't we just proving he was right? massa, grow up

  "If nothing at all he won the case on the constitutionality of the fast track high court ."
  
  Sorry I forgot to address this issue you raised. Tsatsu could not be credited of winning any Fast Track court case because he was not the Lawyer on record on this case but was a Defendent who did not defend himself as his own lawyer but he hired other Lawyers to defend him. Actually he did not win on this case but the Fast Track High Court was found to be Constitutional.

  Fast track court is unconstitutional - Tsatsu Tsikata
  By GNA
  
  Former Chief Executive of the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) Tsatsu Tsikata has been arraigned before a fast track court in Accra, but he refused to enter a plea. The defence counsel informed the court that their client is not going to enter a plea because the fast track high court is unconstitutional.
  
  The defence also informed the court that they have filed an application at the Supreme Court for a constitutional interpretation of the status of the fast track high court.
  
  The court therefore entered a plea of not guilty on Mr Tsikata’s behalf and he is on a self-recognisance bail of 500 million cedis. The prosecution argued that the plea must be entered before any objections are raised.
  
  The prosecution further argued that, the Courts Act allows for the creation of divisions of the high court, adding that the fast rack high court is just a name. When Tsikata was called into the dock, he refused to enter a plea and re-echoed the arguments of his lawyers that the court is unconstitutional.
  
  The presiding judge Justice Ansah called for a copy of the case sent to the Supreme Court and adjourned the case to Monday 18th February.
  
  The former GNPC Boss, whose case was withdrawn from an Accra Circuit Tribunal last week, is charged with causing financial loss of about 2.2 billion cedis to the state. He is alleged to have by-passed the Board of Directors of the Corporation and guaranteed a loan of 5.5 million French francs and another 1.4 million French francs with interest inclusive to a private cocoa growing company - Valley Farm in which GNPC held an initial share of 17.39 per cent.
  
  The loan, totalling about 2.2 billion cedis was from the Caisse Francaise de Development, a French aid agency. Tsatsu Tsikata was represented by Professor E. V. O. Dankwa and Major R. S. Agbenotor.
