  • FOR REAL 10 years ago

    Our highest court on our land just ruled that mahama was validly elected and dismissed the petitioner's case. So what flaws are you talking about? Do you mean courts are meant to approve flaws? You sound hypocritical to me, b ...

    Never petition the EC for a wrong declaration of results. It will be sheer waist of time and energy

    2) Never expect fairness in judgments given by the SC they will be bribed.

    3) Ghana and African Judicial system are all ...

  • SGT ANANI FIADZOE 10 years ago

    Can a Ghanaian choose to accept or reject the SC ruling? So why all this hypocrisy?

    It is sickening to hear people praising the one who created all the tension. There was no basis to go to court. It is doing Ghana a great ...

  • ADD 10 years ago

    There you go begging for a hand out. Work hard to get your own and stop asking people for help you for existence. Also learn to beg with respect. Kofi Annan owes you nothing.

  • M I N U S 10 years ago

    You meant'...and stop asking people to help you with your existence'

  • Pelicles 10 years ago

    Ghana is stagnant in the sense that its future is bleak. I am not a pessimist but the fact are there for all to see. We live in a nation where dishonesty is an accepted norm and fronting on the rule of law is the order of t ...

  • Duku 10 years ago

    It is refreshing to hear such comments from people such as the former boss of the UN. This certainly is one of the moments to feel proud as a Ghanaian. Congratulations to the president and bravo to Nana Addo and the NPP.

    Duku, well done, well said, God bless you.

  • jeff 10 years ago

    Goofed! This man is being foolish on his part to say maturity on the part of mahama, I think. It tells he never know anything on the court issue or he is not thinking right, I guess. Can he tell us the judgement he will give ...
