Bagbin is a big disgrace. He wants to destroy Ghana. He must respect the Supreme Court.
He is power drunk. Holding Ndc are not smart
You are an idiot. Speaker Bagbin should not waste his time appearing before the goro boys and girls of Akuffo Addo who are squatting at the Ghana Supreme Court okay.
This is the sick man we are spending millions of cedis treating him in Dubai. What a waste of money.
There clearly is a collusion between Dame and Torkornoo. For every question Torkornoo asked, Dame had pages tagged with his answers. That is not coincidence. That is question and answers on display.
Kofi wo y3 Kwasia pee. Was not the same court system under the chief justice that set Ato Forson free ? Ndc people don’t know any shame.
Where were the supreme court judges when Mike Oqueye declared Hon. Asiamah's sest as vacant?
Nobody took the matter to them and they don't act on heresy
Exactly. The case wasn’t properly filed and therefore the speaker didn’t need to appear. The attorney general should represent the legislature. The SC erred badly.
M T N should do do Ghanaians a favour by checking on the their chat an call of late the 3 group boys as we have seen in Japan case.
Yaro you are also very stupid paa is it not the Same speaker who declared npp the majority even though they had the same number as the ndc??
NPP + 1 independent member = Majority caucus. The Speaker didn't declare them the majority. They were the majority caucus.
Because the SC did not have any evidence regarding Ato Forson in the first place, so it is rather NPP who knows no shame.
It was an Appeal court that set the Ato Forson free. Not the Supreme Court
The court had no choice but to take a sharp U-Turn because the embarrassment was becoming legendary.
It will be scandalous if the court rules in their favour.
Thanks bro
WHAT A SMAME ,PATRIOTISM IS OUR WAY TO DEVELOP. BAGBIN IS LOSING HIS REPUTATION BECAUSE OF NDC.
You are right
PARLIAMENT DOESN'T TAKE ORDERS (INSTRUCTIONS) FROM THE SUPREME COURT...... SEPARATION OF POWERS,, IF YOU DONT KNOW,, GO AND READ
Good!.,, they should sit and rule on their own case and implement the outcome of the ruling themselves. As for parliament it will focus on its standing orders. Assuming the whole Supreme Court judges go mad today, their irres ...

Gyata fool. Which line needs interpretation
So if it is interpretation and SC has the final say, what do they need the speaker for. They can go ahead and interpret it. If they choose to interpret wrongly just to satisfy Afeyo Marlins and NPP who are their children or c ...

The AG should be representing the legislature headed by the Speaker, not a faction of parliament as we are seeing. In fact, the AG is serving as a partner of the NPP CAUSUS and notes taker for the damn court.
Sammy, do you expect the Lawyers of the Speaker and the AG to be contradicting each other as co-defendants? The case is crystal clear: Rule on the constitutionality of the stated articles of the Constitution, PERIOD.
PALIANMENT MAKE THEIR LAWS SEPERATE AND NOT SUPREME COURT ACTING LIKE MORONS. NPP BOUGHT ALL THE JUGDES TO MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE FOOLS. THE JUDGES BEEN PAID BY THE NPP GOVERNMENT TO ACT LIKE CHILDREN TO PLEASE THEIR NPP MASTERS ...

Bagbin has no time for unprincipled corrupt NPP Judges who are a disgrace to the womb that carried them. He is a man of integrity and would rather use his time on useful things. Every right-thinking person knows that the judg ...

We all know that the SC will rule to please Akufo-Addo. They've thrown their Bibles and Korans away and become pleasers of Akufo-Addo. THEY DON'T FEAR GOD. Hence they disregard justice, fairness and honesty. Ironically, the C ...

You’re the disgraceful person.
As it has been said that "you don't have to argue with fools else people will not know the deference". Thumbs up for Mr. Speaker
The Supreme Court has already toured on a path of biases so why the a need for Bagbin's representation? How long has the issue of LGBTQ+ been with the Supreme Court and they have not found time to sit on it?
TO NIGHT. DONT SLEEP SO YOU CAN LISTENNING TO. OFUM
But the attorney general godfred damey is supppsed to be his lawyer !! He was there why was godfred damey the attorney general on frolick of his own, yieee this boy

The Chief Justice has already given her verdict long time ago so it's simply waste of time.Tnx.
The supreme Court will shamelessly rule in favour of Afenyo Markin. Mark my words! They dare not rule otherwise. They will not be paid.
How can the Speaker claim on the one hand "I reapete, there's no Constitutional Crisis in the nation", and on the other hand fail to have his legal representatives appear before the Supreme Court, who are deciding on the Spea ...

Kwasea . If there was no need why then do different ppl ascribe different meaning to the provisions .
Young Man Jojo,
The NPP is ascribing different meaning because they don't want to be called minority. This requires no interpretation. The Formena MP has definitely joined NPP and that is why the NPP sponsored him to conte ...

It will be interesting to see the minority with their tails between their legs sheepishly returning to their designated minority seats. Hahaha.

Upon all the numerous problems facing Ghana, these stupid and useless politicians are interested in Majority and Minority thing. The gyimie attitude in Ghana is becoming unbecoming.
LET THE SUPREME COURT DO THE INTERPRETATION IT WILL COME BACK TO HAUNT THEM AFTER DECEMBER 7, IF YOU SOW THE WIND YOU WILL REAP THE WHIRLWIND.
Alban Bagbin would make the Supreme Court relevant by defending the suit.
Afterall, Godfred Dame has given Ghanaians the interpretation already citing Mike Oquaye's ruling.
Lawless lawmakers. Bagbin, it's understandable!
Hahaha, you will not get away with this

The Speaker is too big to appear before NPP empanelled idiots who have sold their conscience for pittance.
The. Patapaa man. Use the law to remove his robe .
What a SHSME Albin Bagbin,you are losing your reputation. We talk about winner take all and look at your behavior. PATRIOTISM IS OUR WAY TO DEVELOP GHANA. NOTHING GOOD COMES FROM NDC.
You pple are just twisting the fact. You claim the attorney general is the one to represent him. He has left the case for you to what else do you want him to do.

Lawyers for the speaker were not at the Supreme Court today. This is a slap in the face of the CJ and the enire Supreme Court. He says。' I know the outcome ' Damn you '
By now, the SC should know that, their verdict would have no immediate effect on parliament. Rather, it's the Speaker's ruling that would be holding in parliament for now. Even if the Speaker will regard the SC ruling, parlia ...

ODAME BODAMFO.
Bagbin's political meltdown! Can he even survive his fast approaching few dying days? Indeed, Bagbin is a humiliating shame and disgrace for the nation's young thriving democracy.
If Bagbin will not appear before the SC why did he disagree in the first place. Before declaring the seats vacant and giving his backing to the minority as now having gained majority by quoting article 97, he alluded to his ...

Bagbin can use his own money to procure lawyers. He has already being warn on procurement breaches if he goes ahead to hire a lawyer. What kind of double standard is this.
Bagbin has become a disgrace and a disaster cos of partisan position he has taken.
Who the cap fit's..........
Somebody go and read the novel:
Master of the Game
By Sidney Sheldon
This Bagbin guy is simply a hero
NDC will also boycott parliament until after general elections.
Draw game.Tnx.
Bagbin lost it. I really don’t trust him anymore.
Just imagine.. You were mute then because it favored you and your party.. Hmmm
You go explain tire. You didn't do anything about it when the Hon. Leader declared the Fomena seat empty. Actually it pleased your party and aligned well with your party internal constitution. Now that it doesn't favour you, ...
