Odwamanfuo, is public opinion the law?
Tell your boyfriend Mahama that he will lose
No Madam. They forget that justice does not lie in the bosom of the judiciary. But rather justice resides in the conscience of the people.

The Judicial Process is guided by the Law and not by public sentiment or opinions. Parliament, if there is a Parliament worthy of that name in Ghana, is the conscience of the people as far as the function of law-making is con ...

Are public opinions rules or laws?

Madam, I am sorry but public opinion is not the law.
Madam, I thought you should have talked to your NDC people to conduct themselves according to the law. They seem to be lawless.
Please should it be about uneducated, misleading and politically misrepresented public opinion or about the Law?
What is the position of the Law?
Should it be about the supremacy of the Constitution or the mischief of the ...

The Justice's of the Supreme court should know that they hold the law in trust of the people and must adjudicate fairly at all times.
If Ghana should 'burn', they will not be safe either, infact they are highly likely to be ...

Dear Auntie Hanna,
Did you say "Does the Supreme Court Listen to NDC opinions or public opinion"? Can you re-state what you wrote? I think the opposite will fit your narrative well.
Thank you
No, they smell your dirty shitty arse when giving their rulings .
Never knew this ugly divorced bloated pig is stupid and ignorant .
Like clockwork, the Nkwasiasem Party People are already here in droves as usual led by that illiterate who can't even spell the name he's chosen as his moniker on Ghanaweb! The word is Pericles and not PELICLES, ofuibiba toke ...

Why did we create the law court
This Austrian born Communist should shut up. Is public opinion part of supreme court ?
This Chief Justice is acting like an NPP Cabinet Minister. Does she have a little sense of shame? And the other well educated judges are allowing themselves to be used politcally. No wonder Yonny Kulendi never gets empannelle ...

Absolute nonsense. Your Party and supporters are Nation Wreckers and hooligans, as your own flag bear alluded to on more than one occasion.
Don't feed your supporters with propaganda; educate them so that they will unders ...

Some of these supreme Court judges deserved even harsher death than those that occured in 1979.
@Okyere J, what's stopping you from visiting your so called 'harsher death than those that occurred in 1979' on the Judges if you're man enough? You think we're still in 1979? Those 1979 and 1982 senseless murders shall never ...

I have always said this lady is very dim. What is public opinion when what matters is the rule of law. Then we might as well abolish our legal system. Nonsense.
Is the Supreme Court serving the State or the Government???????
I don’t think the Supreme Court should listen to the opinions of the ignorant , gullible ,and stupid Public . We are talking about Law and not just the eating habits of the citizens.
Honourable, pls your level is above this. Dont get involved in this and maintain your respect.
What a stupid question!! You think the courts are for emotions and public opinions? Btw, which public opinion are you talking about? Why do you call NDC opinion public opinion? Nonsense!!
Shut up for there.
Madam, was the speaker's ruling a public opinion? Can the speaker decide for the people the affected MPs represent? Why are you selling your intelligence because of politics?
The Supreme Court ruling is final. Obey the ruli ...
