These IEA people are crazy. Why did they not advise short Nana and co not to go to court in the first place? The elections were transparent yet these enemies of progress were creating the impression that the elections were rigged. NPP did not have any problem with the declaration of results but rather the accounting portion of the "pink sheet". Fire go burn them !!!

...So, the people around the president including his wife and those Team “B” staffers were aware of the president failing health. Therefore, who were they kidding when they ruin insults on whoever questions the former president health?
As much as I hate to admit Rawlings was right with his statement. If they have had listen to those who were concern with the president health, he might be alive today...

AFARI GYAN'S HAND IN COOKIE JAR
HW3, AFARI DJAN MUST BE JAILED. WAT A DISGRACEFUL HUMAN BEING...ONYAME EHU WOOOOOOOOO!
YET, HE Is STILL LYING. YOUR WIFE HAS CAUGHT U RED HANDED FUCKING ANOTHER WOMAN. YET, U FOLLOW HER IN UR NATIVE SUIT.
TELLING HER, I WAS JUST FUCKING HERE, BUT ITS YOU I LOVE....EEEEIIIII
35 MILLION CEDI NTORO WEI DI3. I NO GO FIT OOOO. PEEP IN GOLD WATCH.
MAHAMA BRIBED AFARI DJAN WITH 35 MILLION CEDIS TO RIG THE ELECTIONS. GO AND ASK JJ RAWLINGS, HE WILL TELL YOU THE TRUTH.
FOLKS, EACH PINK SHEET HAS A UNIQUE NUMBER. THIS NUMBER IS WHAT WE CALL THE SERIAL NUMBER. EACH SERIAL NUMBER IS ASSIGNED TO ONE PINK SHEET.
So if for example pooling station 'A' collects a pink sheet, that number on the pink sheet is solely for that pink sheet ALONE and no other pink sheet must have that same number.
THEREFORE, WHY THEN DO WE HAVE DUPLICATE SERIAL NUMBERS ON MULTIPLE PINK SHEETS? NA WHO CAUSE AM?
AFARI DWAN CAUSE AM, AND HE MUST BE TRIED FOR TREASON. THIS IS GARGANTUAN DAYLIGHT TREASON TO THE NATION STATE GH.
So, it does not matter what name you call it, serial NUMBER or no serial # every single pink sheet must have a distinct number that must be different from all the numbers on all other pink sheets.
As long as the petitioners found that there were duplicate numbers on the pink sheets, that is HIGHLY illegal.
IF YOU FIND THE SAME SERIAL NUMBER ON MULTIPLE CEDI NOTES. WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU? COUNTERFEIT BILLS!
If you find any 2 currencies of a particular denomination with the same number on it, then one is counterfeit. That is what the EC did.
They printed two sets and released them into the system. ONE SET WAS FOR ALL, THE OTHER SET WERE ONLY MARKED FOR NDC.....MUAHAHAHAAAAA
GREAT CID JOB BY THE PETITIONERS. AFARI DJAN, U ARE A DISGRACE. YOUR ILK SHOULD BE EXILED FROM GH FOREVER. NATION WRECKER!
What EC did is a day time robbery! TREASON!
THE SC MUST REMOVE JOHN MAHAMA N GIVE THE MANTLE TO NANA ADDO SOLELY ON THIS PREMISE. NDC SHOULD GO BACK N CLAIM THEIR 35MILL FROM AFARI DJAN.
MAHAMA: WHY ARE ALL UR MINISTERS NON AKANS? IS NDC A TRIBALISTIC PARTY?
ALL AKANS MUST ADVICE THEMSELVES WELL FROM THIS NDC, TRIBALISTIC PARTY....
WHEN NPP WERE BUSY MAKING NHIS, SCH FEEDING FREE FOR ALL GHPPL. NDC/MAHAMA
IS GIVING AWAY FREE COMPUTERS WITH HIS FACE ON THE BOXES, LIKE SANTA CLAUS. WHY DONT U MAKE
EDUCATION FREE FOR THE KIDDIES?

The DISHONEST evil dwarf,who wants to be president At all cost, if not then All Die be Die,should listen to this advice. How can one become president through the ANNULLMENT of other peoples votes. This man knows that the only sacred thing about elections is the act of VOTING and that all others including pink sheets, refusal by officials to sign are all ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS. Yet this mischievous man went to court. How can we trust this 70 year old Evil Dwarf?

In the unlikely event of Nana winning the petition,where is the money to lift up the economy tattered by the Ayigbe crookks/Dzelokope mafia? who have no love for our nation.Since 1979 to date the EWES headed by Rawlings,Tsikata,Awoonor,Ewe ministers,military and police officers,etc,etc,have stolen,looted,shared,hid all monies/income derived from cocoa,timber,customs,gold,diamond,oil,and loans acquired in the name of Ghana from foreign banks and countries.We Fantes and Brongs have allowed ourselves to be deceived into protecting the thieving EWE.HABA.Akans should declare war and secede if they care for their posterity.

One can be as little as a midget but
with full of administrative brains, selfless, dynamic, political profession, a great leader, vision and with again economical stability to progress the this country.

Ghanaian People hate to see a tall
person who is a thief, corrupt, deceitful, dishonest, a liar and encourages Judgement Debts, a means
to employ to rob the majority civilized Tax Payers. A tall idiot,
who does not understand accountability, probity, transparency
and social justice.

Ghanaian People wants their money who
claimed they have pumped into the afforestation NKONFEM (GYEDA) millions of dollars which never brought anything better for our country.

Since Ghana attained her indepedence,
NDC has spent 28 years in Government,
I challenge you to come out to tell
the majority people of this nation what exactly progress has their so-called politicians has brought to our nation?

AO! why do you behave like an idiot
and claim you want Ghana to be progressed, progress under incompetent fools. thieves. corrupt, deceitful, liars, arm robbers and total economical confusionists NDC in our country? KWASEA LIKE YOU.

Do you not know that "corruption" is the reason why our life expectancy is in the low 40s {Canada/US is 75}, cost of living is high, standard of living is low, majority of the people live on less than a dollar a day, it is water every where but none to drink, etc. This investigation is for our general good, if the court declares there is no "wolf" so be it, but if the court finds "wolf" then we must chase it out of town. Wake up, you are in a dream land, your vote is not "Hearts/Kotoko" "NDC/NPP" It is your civic responsibility to use it to benefit the children as they do not have a vote. If you are voting for one party all the time in a corrupt country like ours, then you are being irresponsible. If Mr Amidu wants my vote no matter which party he joins, I will vote for him.

why do we shout wolf when there is none. what level of violence have we had in this country since the begining of the 1992 constitution? Only scartered and of little dimension resulting in some few fools getting themselves injured and few misdirected at the gates and on the streets burning tyres. Why do we create panic and the U.S irresponsibly adding to the hype. The police and the military can deal easily with the few misfits.Review is part of the legal process. If Baffoe Bonney, Anin Yeboah, Jones Dotse, Rose Owusu and Julius Ansah will not play politics of the NPP then the issue of review will not arise.

BK, the suggestions in IEA's statement is as good as it sounds only if it will work. That is, will the two parties heed good advice and act on them?

My personal view is that, whether there will be a review by the loser or not will depend on the arithmetic of the decision. Whilst a 5-4 decision is more likely to result in a review by the loser, it is highly unlikely if the decision is by 6-3 majority, unless a review will require the totality of the Justices of the Supreme Court. Ordinarily, a review will require two additional Justices who may influence the original Justices to change their earlier decisions or stick to them. Imagine the original Justices do not change their minds and the two new Justices vote to support the minority decision, it will still be 6-5 in favour of the original decision.

Though I wish the loser will not seek a review so as not to extend the political tension and uncertainty in Ghana, which is damaging to the economy as some foreign investors are waiting for the outcome of the presidential petition before they make their minds up, a review is what the law allows. It is therefore the right of the contesting parties and there will be nothing wrong for any of them, especially, NDC and NPP to exercise that right.

As if they know that their prefered party would win. Just wait and see the verdict going against NPP and all these pleas would change. Insincerity is the bane of most of these calls. Why did they not prevent petitioners? So now all our elections would be settled by SC verdicts without appeal. We have heard that before.

The late EDWARD AKUFFO-ADDO was elected president of Ghana in the second republic on the 31st August 1970 which felt on Monday , and exactly 43years down the lane his son NANA ADDO DANKWAH AKUFFO -ADDO would be sworn in as the invalid elected PRESIDENT after THE SUPREME COURT declares HER verdict on the 29th of the same month AUGUST. The election of the late and 3rd chief justice as president was challenged at the same SUPREME COURT of GHANA, the verdict validated EDWARD AKUFFO as the 5th president of Ghana, the stars are so clear that NANA AKUFFO ADDO would be humiliated by the same S.C court as the inValidly election petition after challenging the so called Fraudulent 2012 Election ,and would be chased out of Ghana with shame
JUSTICE IS COMING..........Your father challenged election and the son is also doing same. God have mercy.

It is there for all to see, that Ghana is not in conflict with itself

- NPP's loud mouthed Akim Akufo Ado lost to Mahama; and i do not see any legal reason why the Supreme Court tolerates this NPP's a bit of an idiot Akim Akufo Ado; and

- pampers him, which has nothing to do with the Rule of Law; but, everything to do with the functions of Organs of State and the doctrine of Separation of Powers which are not being enforced

- as people, Akims are too weak as a Tribe to be in conflict with the entire State of Kwame Nkrumah Ghana; this is what Akim Akufo Ado and his lot should know

- by the way, i somewhat enjoy reading (IEA) as a think tank; unlike that "Danquah Institute" of Akim buffoons that sells stupidities on Ghana's recent past; and also foolishly claims to a think tank

DEAR READING PUBLIC OF GHANAWEB.COM AND THE IEA,

THIS IS TO RESPECTFULLY STATE IN THE FIRST INSTANCE BEFORE TACKLING THE IEA FEATURE ARTICLE PUBLISHED ABOVE THAT IT IS A LEGAL PRINCIPLE THAT "THERE SHOULD BE FINALITY TO LITIGATION", HOWEVER, THERE IS ALSO THE NEED FOR THE LITIGANTS TO BE SATISFIED WITH THE DECISION OF THE TRIAL COURT BASED UPON REASONABLE SOUND AND JUST AND FIRM "RATIO DECIDENDI" WHICH IS THE PRINCIPLES OF LAW THAT THE TRIAL COURT DECISION IS BASED.
THAT IT IS THE DUTY OF THE TRIAL COURT TO UPHOLD THE TENETS OF THE LAW AND IF THE CONTRARY UNFORTUNATELY BECOMES THE DECISION OF THE TRIAL COURT WHICH OFFENDS AGAINST A CLEAR PROVISION OF THE LAW THEN IT IS VERY OBVIOUS THAT IF THERE IS THE AVENUE AND PROCEDURE FOR AN APPEAL OR REVIEW THEN THERE IS NO OBVIOUS CHOICE BUT TO APPEAL OR FILE FOR A REVIEW OF THE PURPORTED "PER CURIA" DECISION.
IT IS AT THIS RELATED BACKDROP THAT I AM RESPECTFULLY WRITING THIS REJOINDER FIRST TO SERVE AS PUBLIC EDUCATION AND SECONDLY TO SET THE RECORDS STRAIGHT.
THAT IN THE INSTANT CASE CONCERNING THE PETITION THAT IS PENDING BEFORE THE SUPREME COURT OF GHANA WHICH DECISION WOULD BE RENDERED BY OUR DEAR LORD JUSTICES ON THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 2013 THAT THE MAIN LEGAL ISSUES UNDERLYING THE CASE SHOULD BE CLEARLY IDENTIFIED AS ADDUCED IN EVIDENCE AS FACTS IN THE COURT AND FOR THE COURT TO APPLY AND TO INTERPRET THE RELEVANT APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION AND ANY OTHER LAW OR LEGAL PRINCIPLES APPLICABLE TO THE CASE BEFORE RENDERING THE DECISION OF THE COURT.
THAT FAILURE TO IDENTIFY THE CLEAR LEGAL ISSUES INVOLVED IN THE CASE AND ALSO FAILURE TO APPLY AND TO INTERPRET THE APPROPRIATE RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS OR LEGAL THEORIES TO THE CASE BEFORE RENDERING THE DECISION WOULD CLEARLY VIOLATES THOSE RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION THAT THE COURT FAILED TO TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE OF BEFORE RENDERING THE DECISION.
THEREFORE IT WOULD BE COMPLETELY OUT OF PLACE AND A VIOLATION OF THE DECISION RENDERED IN THE CASE OF "BERNARD MORNARD VRS. ATTORNEY GENERAL AND MY OWN REVIEW APPLICATION OF THE AMICUS CURIAE BRIEF FILED BY BENONY TONY AMEKUDZI, INTERNATIONAL LAWYER/LEGAL CONSULTANT.
HOWEVER, IF THE PARTIES TO THE LITIGATION ARE SATISFIED WITH THE COURT RULING THEN THERE SHOULD BE NO NEED FOR FRIVOLOUS, MALICIOUS, VEXACIOUS AND CAPRICIOUS REVIEW JUST TO WASTE PRECIOUS TIME, COST AND ENERGY.
IT IS IN THE LIGHT OF ABOVE THAT I AM RESPECTFULLY REVISITING THE PROVISION UNDER WHICH THE PETITION ITSELF WAS BROUGHT TO COURT AS FOLLOWS:
CHAPTER 008 OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION
ARTICLE 64

CLAUSE(S)(1) The validity of the election of the President may be challenged only by a citizen of Ghana who may present a petition for the purpose to the Supreme Court within twenty-one days after the declaration of the result of the election in respect of which the petition is presented.

(2) A declaration by the Supreme Court that the election of the President is not valid shall be without prejudice to anything done by the President before the declaration.

(3) The Rules of Court Committee shall, by constitutional instrument, make rules of court for the practice and procedure for petitions to the Supreme Court challenging the election of a President.."

THAT THE LEGAL ISSUE INVOLVED IN THE SUBSTANCE OF THE PETITIONERS RELIEF(S) BEING SOUGHT WHETHER OR NOT THE SUPREME COURT HAS THE CONSTITUTIONAL POWER AND AUTHORITY TO ANNUL VOTES?

(ii) WHETHER OR NOT UNDER THE CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY VESTED IN THE SUPREME COURT TO GRANT OR TO REJECT DECLARATORY JUDGEMENT CAN THE COURT ORDER CONSEQUENTIAL ORDERS FLOWING THEREON OR GRANT SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE ORDERS UNDER ARTICLE 64 CLAUSE 2.
(iii) WHETHER OR NOT A CONSTITUTIONAL INSTRUMENT CAN STAND BEFORE THE REAL PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION?

(iv) WHETHER OR NOT A SITTING PRESIDENT OF GHANA WHILE IN OFFICE CAN BE SUED OR JOINED TO A LAWSUIT AS DEFENDANT?

(v) WHETHER OR NOT A HYPOTHETICAL DOCTRAINAIRES CLERICAL ERRORS ON THE PINK SHEETS AND NEVER OCCURRED AT THE REAL POLLING STATION CAN BE TESTED IN A LAW COURT?
(vi) WHETHER OR NOT THE ELECTION OFFICIALS INTENTIONALLY, WILLFULLY AND DELIBERATELY COMMITTED THE CLERICAL ERRORS PURPORTED TO BE MADE ON THE PINK SHEETS?
(vii) WHETHER OR NOT THE PETITIONERS THEMSELVES WHEN PREPARING THE PINK SHEETS TO COMMENCE THE PETITION AT THE SUPREME COURT MADE THE SAME ERRORS OR MISTAKES ON THE PINK SHEETS HAS ANY LEGAL EFFECTS OR RAMIFICATIONS?
(viii) AND ANY OTHER LEGAL ISSUES THAT MAY OR MIGHT BE IDENTIFIED AND WITH THE PROPER INTERPRETATION OF THE APPLICABLE LAWS AND LEGAL THEORIES NOT HYPOTHETICAL WOULD HELP RESOLVE THE CASE FOR A FAIR,JUST AND FIRM DECISION TO BE RENDERED THAT MAY BE ACCEPTABLE TO ALL THE PARTIES, THE GOOD PEOPLE OF GHANA AND GHANA FRIENDS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PREAMBLE TO GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION.
IT IS THEREFORE VERY CLEAR THAT IT IS NOT ONLY ASKING FOR NO REVIEW BUT IT IS A QUESTION OF LAW THAT SHOULD BE PROPERLY AND APPROPRIATELY APPLY AND TO BE INTERPRETED ACCORDINGLY TO HELP PROMOTE PEACE AND UNITY IN DIVERSITY IN GHANA SINCE LAW IS A TOOL FOR/OF DEVELOPMENT THAT ALSO BRINGS AND PROMOTES HARMONY AND SOLIDARITY BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PEOPLE.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.
GOD BLESS GHANA AND LONG LIVE GHANA !

Precisely so! That's very positive from the policy think-tank, IEA.

And an added impetus: let the leader of the "losing" side graciously pronounce on the airwaves acceptance of the verdict. Let him call for a press conference immediately the verdict is given to calm the nerves of all their party faithfuls and graciously concede "defeat".

Two, let the "losing" side publicly call on their supporters to accept the verdict.

Fourth, let the National Executives of the "losing" side congratulate the "winning side".

Five, let no provocative jubilation or celebration explode from the camp of the "winning" side.

Finally, the media. That is where flames can readily be set by sheer unguarded utterances. That's where passion may be allowed to go astray and ignite chaos. There's thus the need for utmost circumspection from the media; print, electronic, etc.

These would be a sure bet and fine recipe for peace!

I am of the opinion that if the grounds or reasons given by the judges for ruling on the case is not backed by the constitution, then party that loses out should be able to go for a review. We Are fond of pretending that it is ok, while in actual fact it is not ok.
Just before the elections, the peace council and Otumfuo advised the parties to accept the election results and when it became obvious that things did not go well as per the rules and constitution the petitioners were being branded sour loses because they refused to accept what to them was not right.
One can conclude that the things that they raised concerns about and the go to court, go to court mantra of the EC chairman was probably due to the fact that they expected the petitioners to accept the results because they have agreed at the peace. Council meeting that they will not challenge the results.
I am sure that leaving that option open will help our democracy.

When I saw this picture, before the elections, I knew in my spirit that John Mahama and the EC has something sinister up their sleeves. Folks should just check the picture and see the guilt of John Mahama, as he bows his head down.

I wasn't all that surprised because I knew for a fact that the EC has been helping the NDC rig elections since 1992, and they were ready to do it again. Folks will recall that it was John Mahama who went around country bragging that; "if God says you won't be president, it shall remain so" even when the 10 year old could tell that it's simply impossible to win elections when you're not known. Esp. when it had become obvious that the NDC had performed poorly in managing Ghana's economy, under late Prez. Mills.

The fact still remains that ever since ex-Prez. Kuffour handed over power to the NDC, things have never been the same; life has become unpleasantly unbearable! And there was this fact that the president had just passed away. Where in this world would this happen? Probably except Ghana.

For the NDC, election fraud is common. They believe that stealing the ballot is a cool thing to do. Folk would recall the 2008 elections. After the elections in which Afari-Gyan declared late Atta-Mills the winner, the whole country fell into a very sorrowful mood. It didn't take long for people to realize that the country was heading into an economic ditch. If Ghanaians had become weary of stolen verdict, then that was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Nana Akufo-Addo was prevailed upon some elders of state to put off his court challenge. The EC and the NDC should have taken some notes here. Instead they must have thought that they could do it anytime or once more, so far as Dr. Kwadjo Afari-Gyan remained the EC boss. That's why Afari-Gyan was saying to the NPP; "go to court; go to court" thinking that once he's announced the winner, nothing can be done about it. The NDC's scribe, Asiedu Nketia as went about say: "any idiot can go to court" thinking it's all over! The NDC went on to tell Ghanaians and the world that: "elections are won at the polls, but not in the court room. The were wrong! They've awaken to the most severest shock of their lives. Truly the election petition case is before the Highest Court of the land; the Supreme Court.

The NDC now finds themselves in a very hot spot. They had thought that nothing could stop them in their crazy election schemes. Folk would recall the pre-election discoveries that the NPP made, concerning NDC's plot to scuttle the ballot, with the Boateng Gyan recorded tapes. Now their bottom have been uncovered. They can run, but they cannot hide.

Folks would recall that before the Decembe elections, I had called on the NPP to be vigilant and expose all NDC's wicked plot to steal the ballot? Happily and interestingly, it was NDC's own agrieved members who showed the NPP all the ropes---I mean the honest ones who crossed carpet.

The fact is John Mahama and the NDC didn't have any campaign message to tell Ghanaians. They rather focused on using the media esp. radio to denigrate the Nobleman, Nana Akufo-Addo. While Nana was spreading his Free Education and the need to turn away from the Guggisberg kind of economy, to a value-added economy which could bring jobs, esp. to our youth, the NDC wasted time trying to refute any good point that he made. What a shame! Now they can clearly see the kind of stupid and senseless moves they made.
