When will nPP members stop daydreaming? So, this writer assumes that any shortfalls made by the registry or nPP are to be accepted just like that. What about the minor errors in the pink sheet that the petitioners are counting on? No logic!

Sorry Bro.Why should the respondents reference with the the petitioners?The petitioners shortchanged the respondents whom Mr Addison cannot trust.

The main aim of the respondents in demanding the audit of the exhibits is not to reduce the number but to demonstrate that the petitioners were being untruthful and deceitful and therefore render their evidence not credible.

I think the respondents are belibrately using this strategy to prove that mistakes such as these are flimsy and frivolous and could have been resolved and not allowed to affect the proceedings of the substantive petition. Could we now hold the registrar responsible for not performing his duties as deem fit and throw this case out just as the petitioners want some citizens' vote annulled just because somebody did not sign the pink sheets? I think I heard one of the respondents use the axiom ' What is good for the goose is also good for the gander '. Unless this case is in court to address the lackadaisical attitude of Ghanaians in their modus operandi and as a wake up call, I think this court case is a bogus one. I can bet my last dollar that the 2000 and 2004 elections which the NPP won had similar or even worse issues. Mo mma yen dwen ye hu.

I think Mr Ohemeng is completely wrong to say that "all that the Court ought to have done was to ask the Respondents to go to the Registry to collect any shortfall". Complete no!!! It is the duty of the party who files a process or paper at the registry of a court to ensure that the other parties are duly served with what has been filed. In any case how will the respondents know exactly what has been filed at the registry to enable them demand for the shortfall of what they had been served with? It is imperative for those contributing articles on this web to educate properly and not to be a conduit of public deception.

Not sure if Bobo is correct.It is the duty of the Registry to make sure respondents receive documents.That is why we have the Registry.You do not have to see or know a defendant to serve him or her papers.Is done by the courts.In the US is done by Sheriffs sometimes.
The Plaintiff (in this case petitioners)will leave a summary report of the documents with the courts and therefore the respondents will go through what ever they receive to make sure they have received all said documents.Is not that complicated.Just that the SC made Tsatsu to bully them.The court should have instructed the respondents to go to the Registry and make sure they have received all the documents the petitioners have submitted to the courts.
Defendant are served by the courts not directly by the Plaintiffs.

Sometimes I wonder those who parade themselves as Dr. This, prof. That, mr. Soso, PhD, living in foreign land are really what they claim they are. In all articles of such persons I found their level of analysis and understanding of the issues very deficient or at best full of dishonest representation. Even the average serial caller somehow understands the issues and contributes better than they do. Please stop disgracing your selves and your self acclaimed academic credentials by writing objective and scholarly articles. Please drop those credentials when doing partisan politics.

WHen going ot court one is clear on what he has to do - the rules of engagement are clear. so if you do not submit the correct number of docs you claim you did the fault is yours and yours alone. the court or kpmg or registrar cannot change the rules midway. the petitioners had to ensure that they delivered 11000 plus they claimed they submitted, not for the court to facilitate it for them. nonsense

So my learned friend what is the total votes to be annulled now? For 13,000 or 11,000 pink sheets? Think through the argument as a doctorate holder and show your prodigy as a person who thinks.

It seems you have missed my argument completely. Do you think KPMG's report is the final on this? There are two samples counted. One contains nearly 14,000 and the other about 10,000. Both were supplied by the same Registry. What conclusion do you draw from this? This is how a doctorate holder reasons. It is not sentiments - it is pure deduction.
The question you asked cannot be answered by KPMG's work; that is why I am saying that it was needless.

Hi Kakraba, please do not take my word for what I wrote. There is a copy of the draft report on Myjoyonline.com. Please read the report and see if I have not been vindicated by what I wrote in this article. The bottom line is the exercise has no scientific underpinning. Thus KPMG has included several disclaimers. The telling statement is that thye say they are not making any conclusions. Please do this for me, and if afterwards, you feel I have failed you, come back and say so and I will learn from my failings.

Whichever way you look at it whether the lower or the higher figure the npp dis-ingeniousness was exposed.The npp argument of serving a specific number had been exposed and no matter how you spin,you will end up making your case even worse. The claim of conflict between the judge and the Registrar is laughable since the two have different roles.The Judge determines the fact and aims to arrive at the truth unlike a Registrar who is a mere clerk and owes no duty to any body but to himself.The bench trust of its staff is just like the trust they have for the public and therefore when a suspicion is raised it must be tested.At the end of the day it is the judge who determines the truth so he will know what he has.Some of your arguments or shall we say your analysis is pedestrian and when the report is finally subjected to scrutiny you will see how infantile you have been which will also expose the dishonesty in both the npp and your arguments.

It cannot be a waste of time. It is a nembers case here. The number claimed by the petitioners are what have been used in the much touted analysis of Dr Bawumia. Remember his mnatra of the fact that "only one was used in the analysis". The final numbers from KPMG has determined that what was filed falls short of what was used in the analysis. This puts a big question mark on the analysis done by NPP. Addison needs some good ammunition in the cross-examination of Dr Afari Gyan. He has so far failed to come out with any real issues.
