    Very interesting to note that only jagaloons contest for positions in the NDC. From the founder, the party executives, their parliamentarians, not forgetting the communication aparachics, are all educated illiterates. Without ...

  • Kakalika 11 years ago

    This Baani man must be thrown out of Parliament and dismissed from the NDC. The Party should should hold a bye election to replace him. He is too primitive to be in our Parlament of this century.

  • Ken Ntiamoa 11 years ago

    decision. While I do not support his idea of stoning adulterous women (and even men),the man was elected by his constituency for a reason and it is the duty of his constituency to remove him if they don't like what he stands ...

    Where were the Speaker and the leaders of the House on the day the MP made the suggestion? Why was he not stopped when he first made the suggestion, etc?

    Ineffective Parliament is now reacting to public anger over the issu ...

    If they have realized they did not do the right thing and now acting as a result of public anger there is nothing wrong with that but it shows they are actually listening to the people,the Speaker did the right thing.

  • KING LOMOTEY 11 years ago

    How many of us are familiar with the Intestate Succession Act? The question does not excuse Mr. Baani. He must be disciplined for his unfortunate utterance.

    Ghanaians should ignored such stupid mouth talk of MP and find their Parliament accountability of the real issues at country's corrupt government,Ndc is playing such game to draw Ghanaians attention,be wise than that.

  • Densu 11 years ago

    So stupid Baani, a "lawmaker" does NOT know the LAW of the land?

    He is CONDEMNING "cheating" as a DEATH
    SENTENCE!

    He should make "cheating" a CRIMINAL offense FIRST!

  • ruff tongue 11 years ago

    You are a fucking idiot. Thank God i was not brought up in the north. Primitive and backward thinking creatures.

  • Omanba. 11 years ago

    Leave the MP alone.He has committed no offence for making such a remark.The Bible[Deutronomy 22:22 & 23] and the Koran prescribe stoning for adulterers.You may disagree with him but do not demonize him.

  • Densu 11 years ago

    Sorry, Omanba, the "Bible" and Koran" are NOT Ghana's constitution!

    You can read your "religiousity"in your bedroom!

    @ OMANBA. All those act were done before christ came. Jesus came to stop all those evil act. Is evil ok

  • Omanba. 11 years ago

    Jesus came to stop what?That is why Christianity has now become a refuge for perverts.Christianity is now a choose-and-pick religion;a permissive religion as a matter of fact.Even now homosexuals are accepted as priests and b ...

    What an irony, if not a travesty that a Communist country like China would manufacture chairs for our democratic republic, just because we are a nation of lazy people with no vision whatsoever.

    Communism and democracy are mutually antithetical, I therefore find it rather ironic and a travesty that both sides choose to deal with each when they deem it convenient for their interests.
