WE KNOW ONLY TWO NAMES, NANA ADDO & BAWUMIA. NANA'S LEADERSHIP WITH BAWUMIA IS EXCELLENT. NANA IS OUR POLITICAL MESSIAH!! WE WILL PATIENTLY WAIT FOR HIM TO COME AND LIBERATE US FROM OUR ECONOMIC OPPRESSORS.WE CAN'T PUT OUR TRUST IN THESE YOUNG NDC THIEVES (WITH NO WORK RECORD) WHO WANT TO LIVE LIKE KINGS OVERNIGHT, OWNING JETS, BIG MANSIONS, BANKS, ROLLS ROYCE, DATING MODELS ETC. AT THE EXPENSE OF THE POOR. BEING A PRESIDENT REQUIRES THE USE OF BRAIN NOT BRAWN. A PRESIDENT DOES NOT "THROW" PICK AXE!!! WHO CAN DO THE JOB BETTER THAN NANA, AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY, WHERE GREEDY CORRUPT , SHARP TEETH ROTTEN PLANK NDC SMALL BOYS, PARADING AS POLITICIANS, HAVE PLUNDERED OUR RESOURCES TO THE BONE, THAT OUR OIL ECONOMY INHERITED FROM THE GREAT KUFFOUR HAS HAD NO IMPACT ON THE LIVES OF THE ORDINARY CITIZENS OF OUR COUNTRY???? LONG LIVE GHANA!! LONG LIVE NANA ADDO. MORE GREASE TO YOUR ELBOWS!! EVERY THIEF IN GHANA, TODAY, IS SCARED OF BOLD AND MIGHTY NANA ADDO. NANA IS CLEAN !! CLEAN TO THE BONE!

Woomera had already stolen the original if there was any. Let the court proceed with the precedings. The truth is that Woyome never secured a dime from any bank to have commenced the project. The judge shouldn't waste our time. Ask woyome to vomit the money and sent him to face the firing squad for defrauding the state.

"...Mr. Woyome tendered the letter as evidence, but the prosecution raised an objection to the authenticity of the document, because the letter had no signature of its author...".

Unlike Atuguba's court that wholly accepted PINK SHEETS without signatures, the Financial High Court is showing some credibility.

If Ghana as a nation has any conscience, the outcome of this case will determine.

.. KB, You may have forgotten that not signing the PINK SHEETS could have been deliberate by the opposing party official sensing defeat at a particular voting area. This risk is real. This is a way to just annul credible votes. By doing so, they would have disfrachised many voters. No non-corrupt and law-abiding Judge would have allowed that to happen. By the way, do not compare the two issues; they are totally different from each other.

JJ is the biggest fool in Ghana. No schools, no hospitals, no water, no electricity. All Ghanaians manufacture is SEX. We are still borrowing from the white man. We still beg for food from Europe. Thanks to JJ, Mills, Kufuor and Mahama. And for you my Ghanaian fellows i urge you to hold your gorvernment accountable. I urge you to use the media to expose criminals in your government and stop wasting your time laying blame on witchcraft.

The courts, the judges, the attorney general and the ndc government are in cohoots with woyome and the rest of the planning, looting and sharing brigade to whitewash all their Ghana. I would not be surprised if Woyome is set free to enjoy his 52 million dollar booty.

Ghana is in a mess and there appears to be no way out except a military coup and a military court to deal with these crooks. The strategy of the stealers is to cause undue delays
in the legal process and the bribed judges are responsible for these delays.

NPP supporters should read Article 49(3) again.
For the benefit of those who are not willing to read I reproduce it verbatim :
'THE PRESIDING OFFICER, THE CANDIDATES OR THEIR REPRESENTATIVES AND, IN THE CASE OF A REFERENDUM THE PARTEIES CONTESTING OR THEIR AGENTS AND POLLING AGENTS IF ANY, SHALL THEN SIGN A DECLARATION STATING -
(a) THE POLLING STATION; AND
(B) THE NUMBER OF VOTES CAST IN FAVOUR EACH CANDIDATE OR QUESTION
AND THE PRESIDING OFFICER SHALL, THERE AND THEN ANNOUNCE THE RESULTS OF THE VOTING AT THE POLLING STATION BEFORE COMMUNICATING THEM TO THE RETURNING OFFICER'.
The question then is:-
Where all the party representatives attest to the veracity of the elections by signing the sheets for for unknown reasons the PRESIDING OFFICER did not sign the sheets, should the election at that polling station be declared NULL AND VOID?. Definitely NOT!
Whose attestation is more AUTHENTIC?. The party representatives or the Presiding Officer?.
Of course the party representatives who have greater interest in the validity of the results.
The NPP have DELIBERATELY decided to obliterate the signature of the Party Representatives to hide the truth for the benefit of their mainly uneducated members who only understand 'TSOO BOI'.

Stop the Azonto dances about Woyome. Letter from Ministry is nothing. Letter from ministry cant constitute contract.Rather the court should ask for the contract documents. Sto the Agbdza dance

How can the ministry find a letter that has no signature? Will that make it authentic even if they find it? What is this this?

you see such stupidity on the part of some gahainas ministers. I wonder where the minister for youth and sports is going to trace a copy of the letter Woyome has produced. Mr Osafo Marfo is a Ghanaina living in Ghana who can easily be traced and tell the court whether he and Dr Amoah produced such document or letter. Why should the minister waste ghanains and court time.

This money has long been shared among those who "financially engineered" the payment and even after judgement has been given, nothing will be found of the amount.
Please leave Ghanaians to wallow in the poverty they crave for, since even government functionaries are supporting the payment, and as the former late president said they are interested in who caused the payment" and not in who received the amount.

An old man, some say. A drug dealer, a lecherous old man, say another group. A loser if he should lead the NPP in the next general election,
Yet at mention of his name the whole of NDC begins to quake. Some even pass premature ... even outside when there is no public toilet in the vicinity.
Nobody can stop the elephant and very soon the corrupt will attempt to flee into the mountains, they will call to their ill-gotten edifices to fall on them but that will not happen.

I am not convinced about the conduct of the prosecution in this case. They are amateurish in their approach but it is not by accident. By now they should have at their disposal all necessary documentation. Also I cannot believe that it will take the ministry of sports weeks to retrieve the supposed letter. this is a complete joke. The judge in my opinion should have rejected the unsigned letter produced by Woyome and insisted on a properly signed one. All parties to the case are not doing mother Ghana any good. i think NDC govt is behind all this as they want Woyome, their financier, freed.
