    It's on to you so called judges, you are the beating your own drums, singing and dancing. We don't care.

    It's you guys that been your own drummers, dancers and singers as well. The only people who listen to you guys is the lilliput imbecile and his sycophantic yes men and women.

    The SC has been working against the interest of the state for far too long. We should all respect the rule of law although sometimes it goes against us. However, when you witness this blatant abuse of power and biases, one wo ...

    Surely it will be reversed one day, Justice Tanko. You taught me in school many years ago and I have fond memories of you. Thank you!

    I still wish that Bag bin and the NDC will explain what they stand to gain if they're designated as majority for the last 2 months of the 4-year presidential term

  • Dunn 1 year ago

    Well, what you need to know is, the NPP only wants loan to be approved. They are very interested in the 1D1F loans which is about $350 million dollars. It’s free money. That’s what NDC is fighting for.

    NPP is all abou ...

    There's no problem with Justice Amadu dissenting in his ruling. But he should understand that opinions are like horses. In my view, Justice Amadu didn't look at the fundamental case. Afenyo-Markin went to SC to determine if t ...

    You don't understand law. If you read the judgement or at least the majority ruling
    1. the first established that there was a constitutional or interpretation (they cited cases that support what they said)

    One day this lawless and unnecessarily patapaa P(ndc) mentality will be the thing of the past among many Ghanaians. When it goes for them it is good but it's bad when it goes against them.

    my question is why should a president be appointing a supreme court judges? it should have been an independent body to be avoiding all this

    The CJ should continue on this tangent! They think JJ is dead! If Jerry rise up again, escape death, and potentially reinvent the past the should not blame him. They should keep pronouncing biased judgements.!!!

    Are we so mentally enslaved that we still wear our master's leftovers in our courts. What a useless and visionless court in Ghana. The entire judicial system is corrupt and the average person in Ghana knows this.
