    These mpepefuo kill each other every day.

  • Okponglo Guy 11 years ago

    Why do you continue to instigate Ewes and Northerners against the NPP? God will punish for that if you don't stop.

  • Jato Julor (J.J.) Rawlings 11 years ago

    Atuguba, stop intimidating Bawumia !

    The fact that Supreme Court judges have the might and the last say, does not give them the right to intimidate fellow Ghanaians.

    Atuguba, where were you when the chairman of the noto ...

    There is nothing wise about what he is doing. The legal system itself needs a review. I see a lot of intimidation goes on in court and when one adopts a remedy for that it is called theatric ...

  • Wayne 11 years ago

    This evil-faced guy is bent on doing whatever he can to frustrate the gentleman, Bawumia. Atuguba has taken a bribe. Let him comwe clean and stop that bullshit. Foolish 'jungle judge'!

  • Repugnant. 11 years ago

    Is not the Supreme Court our court of last resort? Why then would Atuguba constate that an exhibit that had been objected to, should be allowed to proceed, because it could be used later to appeal the case. Can a supreme cour ...

    And why are you on the side of a party that overthrew the first and fairly elected President from the North Dr. Hilla Liman?

  • REALITY 11 years ago

    He Limann was used by the vultures as Bawumiah is being used that is why the removal,though that was bad it does not give Bawumia the right to be trying hard to remove Mahama by falsified documents.

  • Don Blunt 11 years ago

    And where are the correct documents, if those pink sheets Bawumia presented are "falsified"?
    Have you so soon forgotten, that the NPP demanded of the EC to submit ALL Pink sheets, but the SC threw that request aboard? On th ...

    Bawumia is not stupid like you. He is a smartie brought from far away Zimbabwe to rescue Ghana from NDC fools. He will be a leader of Ghana one day if God permits him to live longer. He is a blessing from God.

  • KB 11 years ago

    Justice Atuguba reminds me of Brando of the God Father. Very cool, unassuming but firm. And to add to it all very funny. I think he is the best man for this case. He has a way of breaking the ice and calming tempers.
