NPP HAS LOST ALREADY.
BUSIA WAS A USELESS PM, BUT KUFUOR BEAT HIM BY BEING EVEN MORE USELESS THAN BUSIA. ASIDE FROM BEING THE THIEF OF ALL THIEVES AS PRESIDENT, KUFUOR ORCHESTRATED THE MURDER OF INNOCENT GHANAIANS UNDER THE REPUBLIC. ONE DAY, SOON, THIS MAN WILL BE MADE TO PAY FOR HIS EVIL DEEDS.
DURING BUSIA'S REGIME, KUFUOR'S MENTOR, 33 MEMBERS OF THE YA NAA'S FAMILY WERE SLAUGHTERED UNDER THE COMMAND OF PROGRESS PARTY OPERATIVES IN YENDI AT THE YA NAA'S PALACE IN 1969.

WHEN KUFUOR BECAME PRESIDENT, HE COMMANDED THE MURDER OF THE YA NAA HIMSELF + 40 OF HIS ELDERS AND RELATIVES.

SO YES, BUSIA IS KUFUOR'S MENTOR.
NPP KILLED YA NAA + 40 ELDERS

KUFUOR MUST BE PROSECUTED!
NPP KILLED YA NAA AND 40 ELDERS. THE YA NAA'S LIFE WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE CROOKED LIVES OF THE 4 JUDGES. THE YA NAA RULED OVER ABOUT 2 MILLION PEOPLE.
NPP KILLED THE YA NAA AND 40 OTHERS.
13 YEARS AFTER KUFUOR AND HIS NPP HENCHMEN CUM LIBERIAN MERCENARIES GRUESOMELY MURDERED THE YA NAA AND 40 OF HIS ELDERS IN BROAD DAY LIGHT FOR 3 DAYS, THERE IS STILL NO JUSTICE FOR THE VICTIMS AND THEIR SURVIVORS. FOR 3 SOLID DAYS, HIRED MERCENARIES FROM LIBERIA BY MAJOR SULEMANA (RTD) AND NPP HENCHMEN ATTACKED THE YA NAA'S PALACE IN BROAD DAY LIGHT AND MURDERED PEOPLE IN COLD BLOOD. MAJOR SULEMANA WAS A COMMANDER IN CHARLES TAYLOR’S REBEL GROUPS THAT TURNED THAT COUNTRY UPSIDE DOWN AND DEVASTED THE COUNTRY. FOR 3 SOLID DAYS THE YA NAA WAS UNDER SIEGE BY THE LIBERIAN MERCENARIES AND NPP HENCHMEN BUT COULDN’T KILL THE YA NAA, AND IN THE END, A TIMBER SAW MACHINE WAS USED TO KILL HIM BY SAWING OFF THE YA NAA'S HEAD AND HAND, AND HIS BODY BURNED AFTERWARDS. FOR 3 DAYS, AS THE YA NAA WAS BEING KILLED THE SECURITY FORCES WATCHED AND GUARDED THE MURDERERS, DRANK THEIR FAVORITE HOT DRINKS, AND LAUGHTED AT THE DEMISE OF THE YA NAA. FOR 3 DAYS, THE NPP AND KUFUOR REJOICED AND DANCED ABOUT THE MURDER OF THE YA NAA.
FOR 13 YEARS SINCE THE GRUESOME MURDER OF THE YA NAA, KUFUOR/NPP HAS NOT ARRESTED EVEN A FLY AND HAS NOT CHARGED A FLY FOR THOSE GRUESOME MURDERS. AFTER 13 YEARS, THE YA NAA’S KILLERS ARE STILL WALKING AROUND FREELY AND BOASTING OF THEIR DASTARDLY CRIME.
ONCE A CIVIL WAR BREAKS OUT, GOD WILLING, WE SHALL HUNT DOWN NPPIANS AND ADMINISTER JUSTICE. WE ASSURE NPPIANS THAT THEY CAN NOT HIDE, BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW FAR THEY RUN WE WILL PURSUE THEM AND MET OUT JUSTICE TO THEM.

Thieves. What npp are looking for is to come to power to loot the nation's resources. Now where is the npp communication team? No more useless responses. Npp thinks Ghanaians have soon forgotten when they were stealing gold, money, land and other state properties. Ministers saving government loans in their individual foreign accounts and keeping the interest accrued before releasing the capital to nation's coffers. In fact, the SC is really wasting time that is why these crooks think they still stand a chance. Where on earth have you seen SC removing democratically elected president and putting in a 70 years old drug baron, greedy and arrogant man as president? You have been found out and God will punish you for wasting Ghanaian tax-payers money. Npp would surely pay for their demonic and evil plans.

They are not there by mistake. I'll side with any decision they take 1000000%, than to side with a so-called Professor in Accounting. What is happening in Ghana? If Justice Kpegah (retired) or Justice Brobbey (retired) make these arguments, we will respect it, not a lame constitutional law novice.

This man is only trying to be popular. The SC shouldnt give a hoot about him. If a doctor with 30 yrs experience prescribe tylenol for me, and a banker prescribes paracetamol (because he saw it in a book) for me, which one will I go for? ...

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

EVIL BUSIA achievements:
1. ACO: (which discriminated against fellow Africans, mostly Nigerians. He robbed them of their human rights, stole their properties and VIOLENTLY DEPORTED them to Nigeria).
2' He succeeded in creating "hatred and enimity" between Ghanaians and Nigerians
3.He introduced politics of HATE into African politics where tribalism became the order of the day.
4.He introduced the acts of "BLACK ON BLACK DISCRIMINATIONS" in Ghana, (which has NEVER happen before in the history of black Africans since creation, where we inter-mingled together for generations after generations, and even inter-married without discriminations), where he labelled his fellow Africans "ALIENS" in mama Africa and SACKED them from Ghana.
5. He gave African independent indirectly(neo-colonialism), socialism, ethnocentrism, ,
6. He allowed his ministers to robbed the nation, (not able to manage his ministers), lacked political leadership ability
7. He was arrogant and favoured "elitism and class system."

DR. PAA KWESI NDUOM “I saw many “forgotten” communities with no drinking water, no real schools, no electricity, no jobs, with very little to live for. I resolved that win or lose, I would spend my time trying to help some of these communities. I have been working to give support where I can, find money to lend to very small business people, and have started a foundation that will focus on financing initiatives to educate brilliant needy children and provide facilities,” he stated in an exclusive telephone.

Who ever you are should learn respect from your elders. You could have contributed without insults. Kuffour did not kill Ya Naa, if we were looking for killers, i think you should have first of all clear the log from your eyes, then you could clearly see the speck in another person's eyes. How many people did your Rawlings and his pndc/ndc slaughter like chicken, not to mention thousand of businesses and over 300 factories destroyed or sold under his watchful eyes. Get your facts rights please and stop the useless accusation. I keep saying many Ghanians do not understand democracy, or politics, they only vote with emotions and not logic. Imagine if all these factories were there now, how many of our young strong men will be in employment? They won't be selling by the road side.

Tweaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, do you think the SC is liken to the old time Asantehene's court? Every citizen of the country has the right to express his/her opinion on any case but not to doing so in the court room where the case is being tried even that can be done.In the United State judges sometimes gaged opposing lawyers on a case not to make an open statements to the press.This order does not affect the general public,else the prisons houses would be full of prisoners. Judge Atuguba and his fellow justices are power drunk and are flexing their authorities without getting someone to call them to order.So Kingsley Osei unlike the Asantehene's court where he rules supreme on his sub chiefs,SC is the court for "WE THE PEOPLE" .Every body has the right to state his/her opinion on any case without influencing the judges.

When Ken Kuanchie was summoned before the Supreme Court he feigned ignorance of the law guiding proceedings in the court. Now William Atuguba has set out the parameters guiding proceedings yet a law professor is criticizing it. The head of the panel of judges has the prerogative to decide what is contemptuous and what is not acting within the law. This is not an academic exercise, it is an application of law and common sense.

Letter writing to a court on a matter before it is contemptuous. Your professorship does not confer absolute knowledge on you. If you say something to me and I find it offensive, you apologise. You do not go on that you don't find what you said offensive so you will not apologise. That is the beginning of a dispute or conflict. Do not write to the court period. If you have anything to say, go to the court and ask permission to address the court. there are processes for doing that. Stop confusing your students and shut up and learn from the honourable judges.

Kwaku, the headline of your article and some of your arguments are right but please, put it in the right context. You do not want to make us believe that the Supreme court is saying that no body can write to it? does it not depend on the context in which the letter is written?

Should we just write any letters to the SC which are meant to challenge their decisions or plead our case if we feel the need to? Won't we be prejudicing every case int he court if we did that? Should we not know the limits of our 'powers' as citizens in respect of what we can or cannot do when an active case is in the court?

Why do you seek to contradict yourself Kwaku? Only a few days ago, you said that those who had written to the court "should be exposed and face the law" in a comment you posted to this very issue to which I agreed. Now you realise these letters are coming from your own side of the debate, you are trying to argue differently.

By all means provide a balanced intellectual discourse or analysis of the pros and cons of any issues including this one, but I think as intellectuals, we need to be consistent and true to our calling so please don't fall prey to the 'cheap and easy' way. We are all in danger of misleading as well as casting doubt on our intellectual standing if we are not careful in the way we convey our messages.

Paul I think you are confusing me with someone else. I have not been on this page for a while now but to address your issue about letters, what is the intent of the writer? Presumably to bring his or her opinion or knowledge to the attention of the judges. If this is so, simply put your letter could influence their decision and that is the point. Go to the open court through the laid down procedures and speak whatever you intend to write about.
No judge said you cannot comment on any case before them BUT your comment must NOT bring the court into disrepute or demean or bring the credibility of any of the judges into question period.

Ghanaians like insulting people. Ghanaians cannot hold intelligent debates without resorting to invectives. But who can blame them? Their educational system never afforded them the chance to challenge issues and use reason. Whenever Ghanaians are confronted with facts, they resort to religion or partisan politics. No wonder this forum and others like it are full of insults and unprintable words. I challenge all Ghanaians, especially those who visit this forum to cease insulting people for one week. Just one week and see what will happen. A bird just whispered in my ear that it will be impossible. Why? Because insults are in their DNA. Rationalizing, reasoning , dispassionate and factual arguments are alien to them.

I can understand why you don't want to deal with those who can debate squarely with you. But I could care less, I just want to let the truth out on this particular issue- you are the one who is misleading people here

Let's examine the issue; this is what Atuguba said,

---

People should desist from writing to the judges; it is also contemptuous, he announced. The presiding judge said highly-placed persons in society have been writing letters to the judges – a practice which is unacceptable in law. He attributed it to the reality that many Ghanaians do not understand the intricacies of the law profession. “A lay man is a lay man,” he quipped. Nonetheless, the bench was serving public notice that writing to a judge on a matter pending in court is contemptuous. “Stop it,” he warned.

---

Did Atuguba tell us how and what to write or he just told us that, we can't write to the judges? Why are you so fixated on Kwaku Asare and not Atuguba who could not made things clearer for the people he termed "lay men?" So may I ask where Atuguba and his bench told us when, how and what to write?

And where did Kwaku Asare contradict himself? This is what he wrote and under that article, where you supported him.

"Is it because they are highly placed? Name them, tell us what they wrote and if they have broken the law punish them" - AZAR

www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/artikel.php?ID=279152&comment=9432571#com

What the heck are you talking or arguing about? What you have put in those quotation marks was not written by him. You are using that to lie to the readers and make your own argument and that is wrong. I have provided the link for everyone to verify. It is intellectual dishonesty. You need to apologize.

From that post, Asare wanted to know whether because the letter writers were highly-placed people and that was why the Judge had to draw another final touchline for them? In essence, he wanted the Judge to tell us WHO wrote the letters and WHAT the letters entail. And yet, you are here telling a different story that he has contracted himself. Where did he do that?

You are the one who is misleading your fool-soldiers who come only here to insult and support your bias responses to Asare's articles and yet--- like the pot calling the kettle black- finds it necessary to accuse someone else. May be early signs of PROJECTION, I may I assume.

Citizens everywhere have the right to write to judges. A letter that may seem a challenge to you, may seem a pleading one to another.

Here in the US there are a lot of people who have medical degrees and law degrees too. There a lot of engineers who also have law degrees. Some of practice in either field or both. Ndebugree first got a chemical engineering degree from KNUST before going to law school. Does it mean that he can not practice the field of his first calling? Ghanaians need to open up their minds wide. Just yesterday I heard Dr Wereku-Brobery (Tarzan) shouting that he has a PH.D so he can not deal with fools. What is a PhD? Here a lot of 23 year olds have PhD and they do not boast with it. They are not even called Dr. They simply referred to as Mr so and so.Have you often heard of Bill Clinton being called Dr Bill Clinton? Have you often heard Susan Rice or Condoleeza Rice being called with the prefix Dr? They all have PhD. But in Ghana a title defines a person and not the contents and his good handiwork.

Dear Professor,
It is not anybody's business to 'write to the SC to bring their attention to certain issues of importance concerning a pending case. That does not happen in any jurisdiction. It is the business of counsel on either side to bring up matters IN COURT.' Judges are not students of the public to be educated by them in the manner you are suggesting.
Besides you have chksen to give two examples only kn your attempt to efend your position. Who says those are the only types of letters that can be written? The problem in Ghana is that many people now take it upon themselves to be seen and/heard on many matters and will rush to make ridiculous staements to condemm issues that are in the public domain.
What you have said does not cast you out as intellectual but rather as someone who does not think out your position well before talking. Don't you think that SC judges are better equipped to know their job than a lecturer, especially since don't think you lecture judges?

You have displayed the complete folly of the Ghanaian. Left to you alone, fact is what your teacher says it is. In any case how many jurisdictions have you had the privilege of experience as a party to a case in court.
Be informed that democracy and its allied systems of free speech and rule of law sits on a culture and not wholly dependent on written texts. What was Amekudzi doing in court at the beginning of hearing the petition.If he was amicus curae and therefore heard in open court, what is the 'sin' in writing to the court if even to influence them.This is done in every jurisdiction particularly by interest groups and people of considerable knowledge on the issues at stake. They are called INFORMED OPINIONS
For your information, the wo/men on the bench get it wrong too. Don't swallow everything hook, line and sinker. Make it a point of questioning thoughts and events - that is how progress comes about.

I don't it takes some academic knowledge to aquire a law degree in Ghana it's if you be shielded by friends and family members.
You don't need a lawyer to tell you that, writing to judges means you want to influence them.
So if you want to influence them, what are you trying to accomplish here.

That's the classmate of Akufo Addo.

Atuguba forgets easily and I wander if he can recall all what Afari Gyan did say about errors in the elections.
If Afari Gyan who is the commissioner and incharge of the election say there were errors what is the supreme court wait for. If Atuguba new what he is doing Ghana will have had a president my now. Errors mean re-ran.
Now its too late and John Mahama cant be the president. Every pink sheets is now been counted added and subtracted, Nana Addo had more popular votes the John Mahama for that reason Nana Addo has to form the government. If ever it was Mr Sakara who had the popular vote, he would have to form his government. Its not NDC NPP but anybody who ran for presidency in the elections.

The Supreme court is the highest court of the land. Most of the panels have moved from lower courts, courts of appeal, high courts, all the way to the Supreme Court. They are not there by mistake. I'll side with any decision they take 1000000%, than to side with a so-called Professor in Accounting. What is happening in Ghana? If Justice Kpegah (retired) or Justice Brobbey (retired) make these arguments, we will respect it, not a lame constitutional law novice.

This man is only trying to be popular. The SC shouldnt give a hoot about him. If a doctor with 30 yrs experience prescribe tylenol for me, and a banker prescribes paracetamol (because he saw it in a book) for me, which one will I go for?

Well said Prof. Asare. Judicial service in the country is abusing their powers. If we've agreed the system of democracy, what is the meaning of Comptemptous and its threaten arena. Judges are now ashamed for their bribes before ruling in favor. Our judicial service has disgraced the entire country. Why are they insterested in bribes before ruling. Are they not paid on monthly basis? or Greediness is killing them. Go to prison and hear sad stories about people in there. Henceforth if judges in the country did not act fairness in their ruling, then they should expect their graveyard consequence. This is divine prophecy. it is true, they could chose to believe it or not. It shall surely come to pass just after election petition ruling. Thanks.

Writing to the court can be accepted only when this one sided miscreants stop their partisan influence on the election petition hearing. I agree with the judges the letters under consideration to them over the election petition and their action against the Kuranchie and Atubiga are right.

what is Law in its content? Law is life in divine sense of intepretation. It is also a mere common-sense originated from GOD and not Man. Judges are finding themselves of puckish in the sense of bribe for favors. GOD is the final judger. So Ghanaians must focussed on GOD and discard Atubuga and co for their mental dribbings. GOD save Ghana.

How do you remove a president that has been sworn in? The flaw I see is the petition issue should have be resolved prior to the swearing in of the president… that is the date called for swearing-in of the president by the constitution. People, remain above party politics. There is a bigger issue here that needs to be addressed for the whole of Ghana. I would wish subject matter experts would educate the rest of us on the constitutional crisis instead of all the insults rained on the learned professors.
