Free speech is under attack? If so, how could the NPP spew nonsense everyday, with some even accusing the government of dealing in drugs? The criminals within the NPP are trying to avoid justice. This is why they want to keep the NPP women’s organiser, the chief justice at office. At this moment, I don’t see what the government has done wrong.

There a difference between free speech and peddling falsehood. What he put out was NOT TRUE AND HE KNEW IT. When you do this anywhere else, it's a called a HOAX. It comes with consequences.

This is not free speech, if you accuse judges of conspiracy to work against the suspended chief justice by providing fake evidence and speading fake news then you can be prosecuted to serve as a deterrent to others

If free speech is under attack why do people sue for defamation? Your actions and inactions will attack you. Wise up. This guy was being used for the bidding of NPP. If you look at the sequence of events no body will tell you it is a ploy. Now to Kumi you see your foolishness. No supporter was there to help you when you were being hauled out only your mother and sisters were crying. I hope you will learn your lessons next time....

Kumi was arrested and wontumi was protected by party members to resist arrest. This means Kumi, you are nobody in the NPP party. So wise up.

This cannot be termed as speech. It is an attack on ontergriety of the judges and the lawyers. Why would such an idiot tarnish the image of these noble judges when he knew that he was saying is falsehood.

Another dwarf with inscriptions the lucky boy. The government is busy trying to implement the policies that make people vote for them. So they aren’t get time to be running to court for every lies and frivolous claims the defund NPP party members brought to bear. If your bastards NPP fanatics don’t want to be embarrassed in public like the fat kumi, then they must make sure to provide evidence to back all the claims they have alluded to and stop wasting our time.

WHICH PROPLE LIKE TO RESORT TO DESTRUCTION?
Mahama must know that the Northern Regions should fully fund their development projects so that the idle time they spend on tribal conflicts would be channeled into economically gainful works. The Southern Regions have borne the financial burdens of Ghana for far too long. If NDC supporters say the NDC is the political party of the Northern Regions because the President is from the North, then the works of the hooligans and wreckers must change into peaceful economic enterprises.

You people don't understand the freedom of speech, that's why you're hiding behind party colours to abuse it. The party should have a closed door meeting and advice their members instead of them waiting for them to abuse the system and try to back them publicly for party unity even though they know very well that they're wrong to abuse the freedom of speech.

This same foolish man call wontumi, was telling Ghanaians that if the NDC or JM talk, he will show them Power, bragging he does not fear anyone, calling out names like Kofi Boakye and others, insults and now he's crying accusing JM of threatening him. Nothing is permanent. JM must deal wontumi for him to learn how to tal kand respect.
