Hey, hey, stop this stupidity, and stop it now! I am a Christian leader and I'm here to expose you . Nowhere in the Bible did Jesus commission His followers to insult any other religion. Instead, be the salt and light of the world, so others may be drawn to God. What you're doing is pushing people away from the truth and cannot be the mark of a true Christian. We will treat you as an imposter, a mole, an enemy within the flock.

That individual is narcissistic, a mental health and a personality disorder. Typically, they exaggerate their self-importance and lack empathy. This is why the person doesn’t feel when others are offended. The more you respond to his/her comments, the more important he or she feels. You can only feel sorry for such a person not knowing he has a mental and personality disorder.

I think this where the problem is. Giving this man too much attention. I believe ghanaweb should have stopped him but Muslims taking him to court is dignifying this man and drawing attention to him and people of similar mind. He is insulting Islam which is a religion and not a human being. Nobody is called Islam and where he mentions Muhammad, Muhammad is dead. Let's just be tolerant besides, I believe Allah can fight his own battles.

Politicians do not learn sense especially the NDC politicians.
1. What happened in the Kumasi elections for the Council of State membership has already tainted this council of state.
2. What is the offence of the Chief Justice, if it is those flimsy petitions we have heard about for the GBA is now demanding that the President should rescind his decision then some of us can argue that the Speaker of Parliament is the worse culprit and even the resident himself who is already breaching protocols by using his brothers Plane for travels and also using the brothers car. But it wouldn't make sense to say that a whole President should be removed because of these same applies to the Chief Justice, who is also the head of an arm of Government.

When the supreme court judges were unanimously issuing verdicts de3 you people include His Excellency Mahama called them names and labelled them corrupt. Now your stance has changed because it favours this government. Can this Council of state be labeled as Unanimous FC B?

Ordinarily, one could conclude former Chief Justice, Sophia Akufo, abstained for the perfectly logical reason of not helping to push her beleaguered colleague under the bus. It could also be perfectly reasoned that the eminent jurist did not see anything in the petitions that rose to the level of 'misdemeanor', let alone felony.

When the Israelis are killing the Palestinians like ants, Nations abstained at the UN but they saw the brutality against Gaza. Likewise, the Russian -Ukraine war at the same UN, Nations abstain so if retired CJ abstain what is the news here? Everything is now partisan. Even a whole GBA has lost its senses saying certain things are unconstitutional whilst constitutional matters are ruled not by Association gathering but in a court of law. Have you seen a lawyer fighting for a fellow lawyer to be convicted?

With all this brouhaha why people don't want to go to court but have resulted to public domain court with emotions. The "law is the law" said by suspended CJ.

Is the vocal abstainer not the best constitutional and and judicial mind on the Council? Of course there must be a wisely good reason why the framers of the Constitution included a former Chief Justice on the Council. Why abstain if it was such a straight forward matter, if not for the sake of conflict of interest.

Sophia Akkuffo must be ashamed of herself that she abstained. Abstained from what? Her posturing is a guide to the unlawful behavior exhibited by lawless people.

Reports from where? backed by which evidence? This is just speculations from the NPP which they are good at. Instead of building the NPP party to become more attractive and formidable you are just messing things up for yourself and this Ghanaweb mouthpiece of the NPP is not also doing the NPP any good.
