    Shut up old fool. Rejected Speaker.

  • UNCLE PEE 10 months ago

    There is no other way for that clause to be interpreted. The language is clear and self explanatory. They got away with a similar situation when Prof. Ocquaye kicked an MP out of parliament but quickly made a U-turn to sort o ...

    You yourself was secretly voted out of office by your own party. Your own son was also voted against in the 2024 elections. You still follow a party that doesn't reward people who support it.

    These guys feel that they're the only people with sharp brains, they have blunt brains to say the least. They want to deceive the president to act unconstitutionally so they will use that cause mischief.

    It seems the NPP party becomes vibrant in opposition. All the members are at the Frontline talking to suit only their party and not the country. If it is not them, then the country have to suffer. When power is given to them ...

  • Abrefa 10 months ago

    Someone should tell Mike Ocquaye that a constitutional provision cannot be sidestepped. He should know better.

    You were part of those who destroyed this country. I think you’re more knowledgeable than the framers of our constitution. Posterity will judge as one of old men who destroyed Ghana!

  • Agyarko Agyemang 10 months ago

    Prof, you are one of the main causes of CJ Torkornoo problems now. If you did not deliberately rule out those vancants seat issues when you were Speaker, CJ won’t have to later ruled on it to anger NDC . What did we NPP gai ...

    NPP is singing the same tune like some robotic machine. Finding fault with the Constitution. In the short term, there will be no Constitutional amendment so Justice Gertrude will go through the current Constitution. If there ...

    Interesting. The law is the law. For now the law says camera and that is it. If they had gone public your party would have been on the mountain top crying and wailing and letting the whole world know that JM is violating the ...

    Prof and your rapacious wolves- the NPP should give us a break. When the supreme Court was giving us seven- zero and so where were you? Like it or lump it Gertrude Torkono' s removal is a foregone conclusion!

  • Steve Kofi 10 months ago

    Why all these these lamentations.
    The constitution brought Mahama to power.
    He vowed to uphold and defend it.
    Why these NNP bigots who claimed that they are for rule of law would not give room to the law to work.

  • WGoku 10 months ago

    In that case, Professor Oquaye, your findings of truth about NPP 2024 loss being kept secret from the public UNDERMINES PUBLIC TRUST and means YOU and the NPP cannot be trusted.

  • Asakramitoga 10 months ago

  • The Devil's Advocate 10 months ago

    Fool! Unfortunately that is the law as it stands at present. Anyway since when did the NPP cabal ever worry about public trust.

    Another old fool. What happened to Charlotte Osei?

  • Joe 10 months ago

    Your hypocrisy is nauseating. Would you rather the constitutional provision was breached? Were you on Mars when Charlotte Osei was tried and removed by your government? Give us a break.

    Who undermined public trust in the judiciary more than the woman herself?

  • Newself 10 months ago

    Instead of tackling such issues, the suspended CJ Torkornoo, was acting like the women's organiser of NPP. She led in misinterpretation of our constitutional clause after Speaker Bagbin had given a ruling. Now that clause in ...

  • Abrefa 10 months ago

    Is it dementia or something worse? How can Mike Ocquaye claim that the constitutional provision requiring the case involving the CJ to be held in camera is wrong? That's what the Constitution says.
