here we go again, another pepeni idiot pratt trying to mislead the Akans and lull us into a comfort zone so we are unprepared . war will definitely come not because of a petition but rather because of the injustices , corruption and mentality of my time has come so let me chop some. all the signs of a prewar climate are now very evident , the army come out in full bravado force to scare the people , the national security calling for unnecessary meetings with political parties , people beginning to hoard food ,rice and canned goods , the list is endless . political parties dont cause wars rather it a time when new leaders are born . this political oligarchy has failed so the time is ripe for grass roots changes and that can only be achieved in war . don't believe the hype and stay vigilant and ready , long live the republic of Akan

Peace without justice will never thrive. This is the undeniable law of nature which not even God himself will attempt to embark on!
Ghana must move in line with the two, together, if they want to see true progress!
If history is a guide, then we surely must know that throughout history, anytime peace is forced without justice, there is little or no progress. Please don't preach fallacy, preach reality.
Justice Atuguba is increasingly becoming an AUTOCRATIC. In fact, he is overstepping his limits. He is increasingly becoming an autocrat, and lashing out sentences based on ambiguous laws. For how long will Ghanaians remain ignorant and/or refuse to defend even their own basic rights???
Can Atuguba explicitly provide the legal basis on which he is handing out his sentences???
He must be notified within the confines of the law. If he continues, the people, or leadership groups, should file a motion of no confidence so that he be changed.
The silence of those who must speak, is almost always the breeding ground for grave errors.

Mo agyiimi, learn to be polite and sensible from our brothers and sisters from the north, they argue without insult.Look at Koku Anyidoho the bufoon during the late president Mills era insult upon insult and look at how Ayariga and his brothers are handling the national issues with respect, this show's how those from the south who call others by names are uncivilized.No wonder that is the way you were brought up.

There will be only one winner in this case. Why did we go to court. If not winning is injustice, then there will never be justice in this case.

Can you imagine what would happen if a NPP member of parliament voiced a view which is contrary to what Alban Bagbin has aired?

All of us, it seems, must sing praises to the Atuguba deity. Any contrary view earns you opprobium and instant summary justice.

We are not a serious people. Or are we?
It is a disgrace that in a plural democracy, the only ones whose views are tolerated are those who are happy with the "judical lynching" of Owusu-Afriyie and Adorye.

Listen to Kwasi Pratt, Sam P Yalley, Alban Bagbin, Alex Sebgefia, Kwakye Ofosu- the chorus is deafening!

I am not a politician so I plead innocence and my view is that what what has happened in the recent contempt cases is worse than mob justice or trial by ordeal. It is a throwback to the iron age.

i have known you from afar and have seen more the bag of you. your countenance made you a bag of prestige. not the material louis vuiton bag that valued 35,000 swiss francs that oprah winfrey's colour betrayed her in a zurich luxurious shop. she wanted a touch, but the shop assistant had a prepared answer for her, it is too expensive for you. nobody ever whispered to her, that all the source of her employment, probably from the shop through the raw material of course came from africa (if not wholly at least partially). dont let circumstances underweigh you to show the second part of your name. keep the family mystery to yourself. except that, the harm is already done--- no human being dead or alive could convince me of the iota of wisdom that could ever be derived from this court. i always say, if mandela after almost thirty years imprisonment could use a round table, to face apartheid with certain human success ( God in his anger, simply struck aaron and miriam with a disgraceful disease.)so precious one, who God could nurture, into another position, dont allow satan push you into any sort of fanatism. becareful you may be reminded one day your stance of the then court. where for the same contempt a whole supreme court of a nation could jail somebody for three days etc. you must know the french proverb which literally translates ( we dont abuse ridiculousness because it can not kill physically. How ridiculous it is for the supreme court of a whole nation could split contempt like banana: monkeys do it better with skills) except, you equally, thought it wise to join the train of possible 12 years in power and in a rush for your booty. you guys becareful, man proposes but only God disposes. when every single politician in our monkey country becomes a player of stomach direction, we are in deep trouble. make a difference as a bag before bin.

Fellow country men and women, lets avoid any iota of bitterness within us now and make up our minds for any outcome of this court case. Those of us talking "blablabla" for NDC and NPP, what at all are we getting from these two political parties?

Fresh from her shower, a woman stands in front of the mirror, complaining to her husband that her breasts are too small.

Instead of characteristically telling her it's not so, the husband uncharacteristically comes up with a suggestion.

"If you want your breasts to grow, then every day take a piece of pink toilet paper and rub it between your breasts for a few seconds."

Willing to try anything, the wife fetches a piece of pink toilet paper, and stands in front of the mirror, rubbing it between her breasts.

"How long will this take?" she asks.

"They'll grow larger over a period of years," he replies.

The wife stops. "Why do you think rubbing a piece of Pink toilet paper between my breasts every day will make my breasts grow over the years?"

"Worked for your butt, didn't it?"

He lived. And with a great deal of therapy, may even walk again..

Well, they are trying to redeem their tarnish image.I am very sure majority of judges and lawyers are not in favour with what Kufour the ugliest man has done to such important institution.If they really want to be seen as what they stand for, then this is the time to do so.Kufour, has completely damaged this country and polarised it to the extend that,families are now fighting among themselves.Not even when we were ruled by the military did we witness such things.I urge the judges to redeem their image by coming out with the right verdict without fear or favour.Ghana is far far bigger than any individual in this country.Besides, oboy is born to be president by hook or crook.

Atuguba's nephew works for Mahama as his Executive Assistant or Secretary so how how can he sit on a case in which his nephew has a substantial interest in the case outcome as his job depends on Mahama staying in office. Atuguba is clearly conflicted and should have recused himself from this . Staying on was classless and a violation of judicial canons and ethics

Super Dude, your name tell it all. SO since you have only cotton wool instead of brains I have to drum it hard maybe you will reason as you cannot decide for yourself. We finished this thing before the case started and you are bringing it again. Why should Nana Akufo Addo's relation sit on such an important case? Why must a former NPP executive from the Volta Region be on the bench? NPP are STUPID as they think other Ghanaians are fools. There is another woman who made no significant contribution except to try to help Addison by trying to reconstruct his case for him. She never asked any questions of Mr Addison except the respondents, but no NDC person complained. Even the lawyers as did not complain like Mr Addison, every time he cried like a spoilt child.

THEY'VE SHOWN WHAT CLASS? NONSENSE!!!

THE SC JUDGES ARE WAITING FOR THE HIGHEST BIDDER BEFORE THEY STOP "SLEEPING' ON THEIR VERDICT.

LAZY GHANAIAN LEADERS ALL OVER THE PLACE.

THAT'S GHANA'S LEADERSHIP FOR YOU - CORRUPTION EVERYWHERE.

THEY SHOULD HAVE DECIDED THIS CASE ONE OR TWO DAYS AFTER THE CLOSING SPEEHES IF THEY REALLY KNOW THEIR JOB, AND THE IMPACT OF THEIR DELAY ON OUR NATION'S ECONOMY.

THAT'S WHY I'D ALWAYS LOVE RAWLINGS.

RAWLINGS, IN HIS PRIME, WOULD HAVE GIVEN THE SC JUDGES A ONE-DAY ULTIMATUM TO COMPLETE THIS IMPORTANT NATIONAL ASSIGNMENT.

GHANA IS NOW OUT OF CONTROL, WITH EVERY GOON "CALLING THE SHOTS", SO NOTHING GETS DONE PROPERLY AND EXPEDITIOUSLY.

A DAY'S JOB WELL DONE IN PROGRESSIVE COUNTRIES TAKES THE TYPICAL GHANA MAN SIX MONTHS TO COMPLETE, JUST TO CREATE THE FALSE IMPRESSION THAT HIS JOB IS THE MOST "DIFFICULT" JOB IN THE WORLD.

WHAT THOSE SC "JUDGES" SHOULD REMEMBER IS THIS:

GOD CREATED THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE IN SIX DAYS, AND RESTED THE SEVENTH DAY.

If he was a good advice Mahama would have been in this position. We all need John Mahama did win the election, he should have advice him not to take the office.
Its people like Bagbin is giving politicians bad name.
If Atuguba wasnt the best for the work do think the Judges would have made him their leader. Its now Bagbin know Atuguba was good.
It was in upper west region the rigging really took place, where boxes were stack in favour of John Mahama.

Don't follow Tsatssu Tsikata's rhetoric poems. He actually invented those poems even before the petitioners filed their case in court so it is not the true reflection of court proceedinds. Now sing along with me ...ready go..poor in arithmetic[ He himself lacks calculations..How would Tstsu pronounce this "twenty seven zero 0]..lacks logic[ He himself lacks logic because he complained that the pink sheets has been tampered but it was found to be hoax]...Pathetic..[ He himself was pathetic for not filing his addresse before the dead line. Taken into consideration the tall mountain Evaret evidence of gargantual rigging overwhrlming before the supreme court and the rest of the world. The SC are compelled to deliver victory for Ghana so they will be bold to reverse the 2012 elections in favor of the petitioners.
