How can your 24 hour economy work when your partisan speaker does not know the law? Shame on you speaker. If I were you I would have resigned.
Impeach the foolish man called Bagbin. He is a damn stinking shit. Bagbin knew he was doing the wrong thing but went ahead
Impeach Bagbin immediately. He is a foolish man
Hello youth of Ghana. You can take your own life with medicine.......for instance 10 paracetamol at once....... or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide.
The Mafia court has spoken. The state capture is working.
So the Supreme Court has time to sit on this stupid injunction that has come before it in less than 24 hours? Meanwhile the anti LGBT Bill has been sitting on its desk for nearly half a year now, a Bill that is very important ...

Seriously aiming at claiming majority in parliament. Is that the most sensible thing NDC should aim at this time or help Mahama to sell their party in a positive way? Be wise NDC. NPP has far overtaken you.

They carefully considered her age for the position. Those who equally qualified were denied the opportunity because of their ages. More years to frustrate NDC Government.
It is rather the supreme court that is rather foolish. Silly goats. Why won't they say you're extension of NPP hqrs.
This NPP chief justice and all the NPP judges that SATAN akufo addo appointed to the high court and Supreme Court in Ghana will suffer the consequences in the near future. It will serve them right if they do their job deli-ge ...

when the NPP were training Grassroots to be Lawyer's the NDC were also training thier Grassroots to be Propaganda secretaries
What a difference
Sign that we don't have judges with conscience any longer in Ghana.
@Ntente, you're very comfortable with a decision by one man (Speaker of Parliament) but you can't tolerate decision by 5 other people (Judges of the Supreme Court) on the matter. What makes you think that the Speaker is right ...

Where were they when the first error was made??? Stop the cheap talk, u and I know this system is a waste.....
The Supreme Court was still in existence. But remember the Supreme Court doesn't act on its own until a matter is brought before them. So please don't blame them. And for your information, I don't get involved in what you ca ...

Hahahahahha no news we know them ,whenever NPP tells u let’s go to the Supreme Court you should no that you will not win cos that is next NPP headquarters. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Who makes the laws? Who appreciate the spirit and purpose of the laws. The Legislature will not be micromanaged by the executive through the judiciary. It will not happen.
Bagbin, why have you disgraced yourself like that. You will be remembered for being the first foolish Speaker of the land foolish Bagbin. Bagbin the fool.
Hahahahahha no news we know them ,whenever NPP tells u let’s go to the Supreme Court you should no that you will not win cos that is next NPP headquarters. NOTHING NEW ABOUT SUPREME COURT AND ELECTORAL COMMISSION
I now understand the reason those evil judges were murdered. Just look at the speed at which the unanimous fc used in dealing with a case that disadvantage the ugly dwarf. 7th December is another independence for Ghana. We sh ...

Disgraced Speaker of Parliament. This is monumental. I can't wait till next Tuesday to see how Parliament will function
You are the biggest fool in the world.
This case borders on the running of the state and you want the court to delay it?

The members of Parliament are still in the current Parliament. They have not resigned from Parliament and so why declare the intent for future as the status quo.

Bagbin is simply a fool and has shamed himself in a bad way.
Impeach Bagbin the fool
The supreme court is doing what Akuffo Addo brought them to do. They continued in that direction even if the NPP is voted out of power.
THIS SUPREME COURT IS FULL OF CRAP. HOW CAN ONE PERSON BELONG TO TWO SEPERATE PARTIES AND SIT IN PARLIAMENT. THOSE MPs ARE NO MORE MEMBERS OF THEIR PARTY. WITHIN THEIR CONSTITUENCY THEY DO NOT REPRESENT THE PARTY THST BROUGH ...

In addition, President Nana Akuffo Addo has destroyed the conscience of the Ghanaian judiciary.It is simple and short- the TRUTH.
Any lawyer worth his salt and any sensible person could tell from the unset that Bagbin will be disgraced by the Supreme Court.
I am not a lawyer but I challenged Bagbin's ruling on air this morning.
Those MPs have not de ...

Wow, swift ruling.
What about the E-levy and the LGBT cases pending
The unanimous fc has done it again. But they shouldn't forget that one day one day when the table turns, they should accept it in good faith
BAGBIN HAS THE RIGHT NOT TO ACCEPT THE RULING OF THIS CORRUPT NPP CONTROLLED SUPREME COURT. THE JUDICIARY IS INDEPENDENT FROM THE LEGISLATURE. THE JUDICIARY CAN ADVICE THE LEGISLATURE BUT CANNOT CONTROL OR OVER TURN DECISION ...

Indeed, the thriving democracy in the country is really at its best. Unquestionably and undoubtedly, the down-trodden Alan Bagbin has now become a big shame and humiliation to the seat of Speaker. Of course, every good and ...

It’s no surprise…unanimous eleven…hahahahaah…Ghana go sweet.
Let’s respect the ruling
It is shameful to have this kind of apex court
The 80s was dark and black for the judiciary and this era is dark and black for the this generation and the future as well
clearly shows NDC should be vigilant at the pools, any election court case they will lose
There is no law forcing the speaker to uphold the Supreme Court decision.
The speaker must appealed the decision of the injunction.
Parliament is not under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court and therefore the Supreme Court has no power to interfere in the matters of parliament. This cannot hold.
Exactly what the brain-dead NPP supporters are struggling to comprehend.
Separation of power allows the judiciary to perform its duty of interpretation and stopping any decision by the Legislature or Executive that contravenes provisions of the constitution.
It doesn't mean each arm of government ...

Alban Bagbin has made Ghanaian parliament a laughing stock

For your information it was ex-parte so there were no NDC lawyers there.
Only a pig like you and the boga,boga judge
It will never work!! Mark my words.!
this foreshadows the challenges ahead of the upcoming elections with this rubber stamped Supreme court; Sad
Parliament is dead.Whatever comes out from Ghana parliament is fake.
The Speaker took a senless and partisan decision to satisfy NDC hence Mahama had no patience in thanking God for this. It was planned and crafted for Bagbin to announce. See how Haruna Iddrissu has led Bagbin to shame.
The Executive, Legislature and the judiciary are all masters of their own rules. None is subordinate to the other. It's therefore null and void if one of them wants to Lord it over the other as the judiciary seems to be doing ...

Ndc is not a political party
Akufo Monkey is not a human being
This is a bigger lesson to ndc when u comes back to power u shouldn't joke . U also have to pack the courts with your people. There shouldn't be any sympathy for all . No father and son something koraaaaaaaa
Ndc is not a political party. Bagbin has no vote in paliament

How can you declare a seat vacant without a by-election?
What happens to that Constituency, no representation or?
Can it also mean, we have to vote for a New Speaker of Parliament and Deputies?
Interesting.
This current supreme court judges hmm. Their actions, doings , inactions,conscience and deeds will follow them to their graves. To me they want a certain party to thrive at the expense of the whole country.
When the courts acquitted the minority leader they were for ndc Abu? Silly noise makers
As for the supreme Court, the least said about them the better
Why does this woman bow so easily to NPP pressure. Certainly the weakest CJ this nation has ever had. The remedy is to sack the obviously corrupt SCJ after January 7. This woman knows NPP will lose so the wise thing to do ...

Shame on supreme court. No honour, nana Ado has succeeded in destroying the trust for once a respectable body to a mocking body. SHAME ON ALL OF THEM.
IF SUPREME COURT IS NPP HEAD QUARTERS THEN NDC ALSO TAKE BURMA CAMP AS THEIR BASE. THIS IS THEIR LAST NDC CASE THEY WILL RULE AGAINST THEM
when the NPP were training Grassroots to be Lawyer's the NDC were also training thier Grassroots to be Propaganda secretaries
What a difference
Our only hope against the violence and idiotic behavior of the NDC is the Supreme Court. They always behave like primitive savages.
The Supreme Court should go and administer Parliament from next week themselves. It will not work.
Haruna Iddrisu trapped Bagbin and he fell into it.
Bagbin has been disgraced by the highest court of Ghana.
He’s now a laughing stock.
Bagbin will be remembered as the worst Speaker of parliament. What a Legacy.
When is with the NPP, it's always with alacrity. No surprises there at all. The loser....Ghana.
Who appointed the SC justices and what do u think the motive is? It’s no news seeing their verdicts in favor of the npp
