Doe Adjaho is an old NDC stereo-typed, very partisan and single-minded, used and damped constituency good for nothing old wooden prank and cudgel, who is going work against progress in new Parliament.

My assessment is echoed by the lack of confidence his own people of Avenor had in him, after over twenty years service as their representative.

Any wonder he lost in the primaries?

DOE ADJAHO IS A RAPIST

Accra - The Member of Parliament for Avenor and Majority Chief Whip, Edward Korbly Doe Adjaho has gone to court over allegations that he raped a married woman on the night of March 27, 1999.

In a writ filed at the High Court in Accra, lawyers of the MP accused Mr. P.O.C. Babbah of Avenorkpehe of defaming the character of Hon. Doe Adjaho in a letter headed "Mr. EK.D. Adjaho Avenor Constituency Member of Parliament and Majority Chief Whip in Parliament committed rape", and distributed widely on the 24th of December 1999.

In the said letter the defendant who was described as an unemployed assemblyman, is reported to have written that "Mr. Adjaho willfully decided to rape and raped a married woman in the night of Sunday, the 27th March, 1999."

Calling for disciplinary measures to be taken against the MP to serve as deterrent, the defendant wrote that the "disgraceful crime committed by no mean person than an MP holding such highly respectful and sensitive position (in) Government cannot be over looked".

In the letter which was sent to the President of the Republic, and the Speaker of Parliament, P.O.C. Babbah is said to have stated that the act had been hijacked by the two main opposition parties, the New Patriotic Party and National Reform Party" who are due to use it to discredit and embarrass the NDC."

In his statement of claim, Hon. Doe Adjaho said he has not raped any woman, has never been found guilty of the crime, or been convicted by any court for the offence of rape and that the defendant had "no basis whatsoever for making the references, accusations and allegations" against him.

According to Hon. Doe Adjaho, as a lawyer, Member of Parliament and Majority Chief Whip, the defamatory letter has caused him great embarrassment, inconvenience and discomfort.

His statement of claim said that the letter was only published with the intent to malign, defame and embarrass him since there was no basis for the allegations.

Plaintiff is therefore suing for damages against P.O.C. Babbah for defamation in libel and for costs.

It would be recalled that back in April this year, the District Chief Executive (DCE) of Akatsi, Victoria Nazzah Gidigloh sent a seven- page petition to the President of the 31st December Movement Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings and other leading members of the NDC that recounted acts of the MP aimed at destroying her "person, destabilize my administration, the NDC party and the District."

The DCE also accused the MP of attempted rape in her room "in the middle of the night of March 27, 1999."

The DCE described the alleged encounter "as a ploy to humiliate me and peddle me as a moral misfit".

Hon. Doe Adhaho denied the allegations against him and said he only heard about them when his attention was drawn to a petition by Mr. Babbah who as constituency propaganda secretary of the NDC at Avenor, had called for action to be taken against the MP- a move seen as taking sides with the DCE.

The former Senior State Attorney said the accusation was an attempt made to soil his reputation for fighting corruption in the Akatsi Assembly.

The impending court action is thus the latest twist in the on going battle for control in the constituency.

I am afraid if our president can be his own man. Mills totally lost control of the administration when he allowed himself to be used by the Ewes by positioning themselves in his administration as against major tribes in Ghana hence; Wayome & Tehoda incidence.What we fail to realize is that the Ewes like Ashantis have no respect for us from the North, Ashantis are better than Ewes. Many years of Ewes rule through Rawlings they did not want people from the North to be in the cabinet and even you as vice president they had no respect for you so don't allow people to mount pressure on you to nominate Doe Ajaho when it is an open seceret he hasn't got credibility why not Asiedu Nketiah who has stood with you through thick and thin.

Fellow Ghanaians, let us analyze the performance of the two main political parties in this country. NDC’s philosophy is “dzie wo fie asem”. In opposition they allowed the Kufuor regime to mind its own business. As a result the NPP looted the Ghana government for eight good years. The fat cats looted the economy from cash (Kwadwo Mpiani), bungalow (Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey), cooking pots (Sekyi-Hughes) etc…..70% of the richest people in Ghana are NPP apparachicks. In the case of NPP, they believe they know better than anybody else and they are the only people who have the divine right to rule Ghana thus they oppose everything NDC does if it is not from the NPP, whether good or bad, from, Chinese loans, judgment debts, appointments and even the inauguration of President Mahama. This enabled the NDC to always be on their toes in whatever they do. From this observation, you can all agree with me that the NPP are better in opposition than NDC. Fellow Ghanaians, let us ensure that NPP remains in opposition for thirty years. After that time NDC will improve everything and NPP will come back and rule Ghana till thy kingdom come.

In the desperation of the NPP, it can be deciphered clearly that Nana Arkoma’s reasoning smacks of defeatist logics.
The results of the elections that create this Parliament have been challenged and the legal intervention of the defeated party is ' Subjudace". Nana Akomea is “Stepping in his own poop", because NPP has boycotted even the parliamentary procedure which ushers NDC as the new government.

Why is he commenting on the new speaker who is not theirs anyway?

If they win the court case and Akufo-Addo becomes the new president-elect of Ghana, a new speaker would be appointed by him and if they lose, they won't be there anyway....As3m s3 be!!!!

When it comes to political discourses, he's seen as good orator. However, he's known as someone who is bankrupt speaking the truth. As minister of information under president Kufuor, Nana Akomea never uttered a single truth until he's timely replacement by the president.
As director of communication for NPP, Nana Akomea has the pundit of using uncouth words on people in Government: he never sees anything good in anybody else except those in his NPP. He has never been courteous to his opponents.

Adjoa was worried about her husband Yankey, so one day she took him to the doctor's. As the doctor called Adjoa in and looked him over, Yankey began insisting, "There's nothing wrong with me. I know because God takes care of me." What do you mean?" asked the doctor. "Well," Yankey responded, "when I go to the bathroom he turns the light on and off."
The doctor decided he had better talk to both Yankey and his wife, so he calls Adjoa into the room and begins to explain, "Yankey says God turns the light on and off for him when he goes to the bathroom. Is it true that --" "DAMMIT, Yankey!" Adjoa bursts out, "How many times do I have to tell you not to piss in the fridge?"

No one need your opinion about Doe just think of yourself and lick your wounds after losing big time.

I wish all these politicians will concentrate on their constituents needs and issues, than criticizing everything and anything that their opponents do.
Both in power and opposition need to stop these childish acts. The country is in serious trouble and needs serious people to solve it. So if the current politicians think they will rather be biting each other then it is incumbent on them to leave and mind their personal business....

Why does nana akomea wants a father for the NPP MPs in parliament? If he thinks they need a baby seater he should just say so. This time round the NPP would not be treated softly for the spoilt brate that they are.

"Odorkon", put this in ur damn noether fucker coconut, that the arrogant evil dwarf who doubles as a war monger, addicted womanizer and sheeeee addict did not win this free, fair, transparent and peaceful elections.

"Odorkon" are u not ashamed of ur ' salifus'. Three known braggarts and tribalist. Mahama won the elections.

"Odorkon Akomea", 'Okenkey' Does NDC jave majkority inn patliament ? Yes or no. Nonsense.

"Akomea Okenkey" , is it true that NPP has no seat in 3 regions ? Legally pathetic.

"Okenkey Akomea ooo Odorkon", is it also true that ND won 8 regions out of 10 ? Yes or no ? Nonsense. Akufool Addo will fool alot of people including pastors, sending all of them into the neighbourhood of stupidity and foolishness

god has chosen for Ghana a President ans no weapon fashjoined against it shall prospeer.

NPP , present ur liquified evidence at the SC and wait for the interpretation of ur legal, arithmetic, logic and factual nonsense.

Waaaa look at Jake and the infantile Bawumia trying to trick th SC with their arithmetic nonsense. "Nkwasiasem ara kwa kwa."

Nana Akomea and the rest of the leadership of the NPP should take a critical look at themselves in the mirror before making stupid, silly un-intellectual comments, and as passing judgement on someone integrity and suitability to hold certain public office. With due respect, Nana Akomea and majority of NPP leadership would be automatically disqualified from holding public office in a developed democracy because of their foolish public utterances. They seemed not to be making intellectual and intelligent arguments to back-up their wild statements.

Who is more qualified and had the attributes, integrity, honesty and respect to be the Speaker than Doe Adjaho? What does he (Akomea) mean or meant by “lacks the fatherly figure?” Is he talking or referring to his age or something different? John Bercow, Speaker of the UK House of Commons is 49 years, Andrew Scheer, aged only 32, is Speaker of Canadian House of Commons, and in Australia, Anna Elizabeth Burke is 46 and Speaker of the Australian House of Representatives. These Speakers are younger than Hon Doe Adjaho and yet, they are appointed by the old parliamentarians, some of them too old to be their fathers, to perform the role as the Speaker. Fatherly figure doesn’t me old or young, and there is no correlation between being fatherly figure and one’s age to perform the role as a Speaker.

Hon Doe Adjaho is 55 years, humbled and had more real life experience and qualities than most of that arrogant bunch that only sees themselves as having the divine rights to be in the corridor of power. Some of NPP leadership are corrupt, arrogant and lack the human and political traits to guide the country to economic and social prosperity. Edward Doe Adjaho as I know him had the credentials, experience and integrity to be the leader of the House.

THE APPOINTMENT OF THIS GOON CALLED DOE ADJAHO AS SPEAKER OF GHANA'S "AUGUST" PARLIAMENT, INFACT, GIVES CREDENCE TO THE FACT THAT GHANA IS REALLY CRYING OUT FOR HARDWORKING NATIONALISTIC VISIONARY LEADERS WITH RHETORICAL AND COMMON SENSE ABILITIES.

THIS MAN, LIKE THE FORMER LADY SPEAKER, SPEAKS GHANA'S OFFICIAL LANGUAGE, ENGLISH, WITH A VERY HEAVY BUSHLIKE ACCENT.

INFACT, HE COULDN'T EVEN ARTICULATE HIS THOUGHTS AND SPEECHES, MUCH OF WHICH WAS FULL OF DISJOINTED NONE SENSE, YET HE IS NOW GHANA'S SPEAKER OF PARLIAMENT IN THE MAKING.

I WAS IN GHANA WHEN I HEARD HIM SPEAK ON TELEVISION AS CHAIRMAN AND A MEMBER OF THE APPOINTMENTS VETTING COMMITTEE, AND I NEARLY CRIED AND BLED TO DEATH.

People like you including your leadership (NPP) are all bunch of idiots! You don't think twice before you speak or write. Which language do you speak?

Look at yourself in the mirror first and proof-read your own article, check if there is or there are grammatical or spelling errors in your article before you blindly tried to undermine these intelligent individuals. As much you might think or thought, you can't compare yourself in anyway to these two Speakers, certainly not in your wildest dreams ever!. They are intelligent and clever individuals and that's why they occupied the position as a Speaker. What is your CV?

His mother never showed or told him who his father is so he is all over the place seeking willing old-men to be a father to him. He is a pathetic bloke.

The ignorants are up again. Have NPP been satified with a good speaker before. They had Peter Alan Adjetey who was great speaker but not partisan enough so he was removed and replace with a thief who stole cooking pots away s- what can such a party advise on the subject of Speaker of parliament. The last speaker did well although a woman so where does a "fatherly quality " come in here. When will it be "motherly quality" at place. Stop the nonsense.

Doe Adjaho lacks the fatherly figure- Akomea
