This so-called learned person should come down to Accra and argue his opinions in a competent forum with proper legal representation. Making unnecessary comments and arguments in far away USA doesn’t make any sense.

According to the NPP, if an MP discloses an intention to go independent, he will automatically vacate his sit in the next parliament and not the current one. He knows he will automatically vacate his sit but will campaign and go into the contest, weather he wins or loses, he will still automatically vacate his sit. Is this not nonsense? If their constitution is not for the current situation, how can you vacate a future sit that you have not won.

This is a trap. Parliament rejected the writ. Technically it was not possible to serve parliament. If the Supreme Court raises this issue that they have no write to argue over something they did not receive, parliament will also say that well, since you agree that we did not receive it then case close. If the court fails to mention it and proceed with the case it will still come back to hunt them because it’s a fact that they were not served. That lawyer is extremely good.

As a layman, my understanding of ARTICLE 97 CLAUSES (G) & (H) below ref MPs settles the matter beyond every reasonable doubt.
Why the Supreme Court needs to interprete this simply beats my imagination.

ARTICLE 97, CLAUSES G & H:

(g) if he leaves the party of which he was a member at the time of his election to Parliament to join another party or seeks to remain in Parliament as an independent member; or

(h) if he was elected a member of Parliament as an independent candidate and joins a political party.

It looks like all of the arms of government are tired with our Fourth Republic. So with this turf war, who will be the casualty should there be a revolution. You same people will be the casualty. So you keep playing with the Ghanaian Youth. Fire will definitely burn you. Now my take are as follows:

1. Why is NPP seeking to stop the same thing they did to someone four years ago? Karma is always at the corner.

2. Why is NDC pushing to utilize the same political game that is hunting NPP today forgetting Karma is also waiting for them. Lack of vision and patriotism.

3. Why is the supreme court getting itself involved in political gymnastics? Loyalty to the appointer not the nation.

The youth are watching your and lack of patriotism. Very soon they will take their future from your hands.

How long does it the Supreme Court to interprete just one Article 97 in the Constitution?
Upon all the big big schools and big big English that lawyers and judges speak,nobody understands the meaning of Article 97?
As for me,Afenyo is challenging the Constitution but want us to believe that he wants interpretation.
What makes the difference between challenging and interpretating the Constitution?
How can MP entertain fake MPs in Parliament?
SC must uphold and defend the Constitution but not defend illegal MPs in Parliament.Tnx.

If the speaker is saying the Supreme Court has no jurisdiction to hear the case why is he going back to the same court to ask them to vary their ruling. It is an absolute contradiction. Why didn’t Badgin go to a superior court he deems it fit to hear such case? It is waste time.

Mr Asare,you are responsible for this anarchy in Ghana today because you were the first person to say that Prof.Mike Ocquaye ruling on Article 97 against the Fomena MP was wrong.
I find it strange that today you have not been able to express your view on the same matter.
Ofcourse,you alluded that the Fomena MP's case should have been a declaration from court.
Now we are in the Supreme Court,please say something.
As for me,Afenyo Markin can't challenge the Constitution and laws of which he is part of making them.
Going to court to challenge Article 97 as if he doesn't understand English is problematic.
We can't entertain illegality in Parliament according to the Constitution.Who put the Article 97 in the Constitution?Tnx.

Until the court dissolves the marriage, the couple are legally married. The final interpretations of the laws of the country lies with the Supreme Court. The Speaker has no right to reject the ruling. He has to appeal to full bench of the court. People should get this clear: the court suspended the speaker’s ruling to give the 2 parties chance to argue the case before them. The Speaker is not final arbiter for the laws of Ghana. That’s why he is going before them. Should the court rule against the speaker, what can he do? Can he Dissolve the Supreme Court?

Let’s just start using common sense and Logic in most of our lives instead of our courts delivering judgement instead of the TRUTH. Do you really or honestly consider yourself married to a woman who has filed for divorce? Do you still expect your Conjugal from the woman who has filed for divorce. Come on!! Please do us a favour and fix the ailing Economy instead of this useless court nonsense.

Contrary to the popular belief that the judiciary is neutral, Torkonu and her counterparts, tried to overthrow the constitution of Ghana. This time, not our army but the court. Bidding for NPP, Torkonu has undermined the legitimacy and the credibility of the upper Court . Should this election go to court, the obvious can be seen.

We already know the outcome of the case, it is still unanimous fc or to throw dust into the eyes of the public ,one may dessent. But we will continue to force the supreme to continue to be bias so that they can be caught in their own webs in the future. That is the only reason why NDC will continue to go to court and not because NDC think they will get justice

Time and money wasted. Where are the military and why are they so weak and not interested in Government? Ghana need a revolution badly as the guys contesting in the hext election are the worse with zero credit.

Get a grip, to all those out there saying a lot stuff. The military has no mandate to defend the constitution of Ghana. Its mandate is to defend the sovereign nation and territorial integrity of Ghana.

The affected MPs if they think speakers decision afect their human rights they themselves should go to high court.
Per npp own party constitution are those MPs still their party members?
What type of democracy and rule of law is this?
Those judges at the supreme Court should go back to law school and stop their political nonsense
