Businessman Alfred Agbesi Woyome has caused a suit to be filed against Anthony karbo, Kweku Baako, Multimedia Group Ltd, Despite Group of Companies (Proprietors of Peace Fm/Peacefmonline) and City FM for criminal contempt at the Court of Appeal on Friday, 15th July, 2016.

The contempt application filed by one of his lawyers, Mr. David Annan is citing the Respondents variously for engaging in acts that was and are calculated to "prejudice the due administration of justice in general and in particular the judgement of the Court of Appeal in the case of the Republic Vrs Alfred Agbesi Woyome with suit number H2/17/15 delivered on the 10 of March 2016 ..."

The particulars of contempt filed by Lawyer David Annan states that the conduct of the Respondents in the matter constitutes a direct or indirect disrespect to the Appeal Court, and a naked intention and choice to scandalize the entire Court of Appeal, its Judges and the Parties in the case.
It is the claim of the plaintiff (Mr. Alfred Agbesi Woyome) that the conduct of Anthony Karbo, Kweku Baako, and the three media houses cited to have aided and abetted them to make disparaging pronouncements before, during or after the determination of the judgement of the Court of Appeal was deliberately aimed at inciting public opinion against him (the plaintiff) and/or to impede the administration of justice, impair the authority of the judiciary or to erode public confidence in the administration of law and justice by the Court of Appeal.

The Plaintiff in his reliefs is praying the court to charge the Respondents guilty, and make them to purge themselves, apologize and retract and pay a fine and/or give security of good behavior, or they be committed into custody as the court may deem fit.

The case will be heard at the Court of Appeal on the 26th July, 2016.

I also agree that this Koku Anyidoho ,like Kofi Adams ,is desperately defending the ill-gotten wealth that he is acquiring at the Flagstaff house. Who are you to condamn Dr. Bawumia ? By the way why are you silent on the Muntie 3 ' case ? Koku is a typical sycophantic NDC idiot whose entire livelihood depends on attacking opponents more intelligent than he is . You think your corrupt NDC party will rule forever and that is evident in your constant attacks on opposition members who are exposing the inefficiency of the way 14th century Mafia ruling and destroying the entire economy . To hell with you and your rubbish .Do you think you are the only one with a degree ? Nonsense.

A man was forced to take a day off from work to appear for a minor traffic summons. He grew increasingly restless as he waited hour after endless hour for his case to be heard. When his name was called, late in the afternoon, he stood before the judge, only to hear that court would be adjourned for the rest of the afternoon and he would have to return the next day.
?What for?? he snapped at the judge.
His honor, equally irked by a tedious day and sharp query, roared, ?Twenty dollars contempt of court. That?s why!?
Then, noticing the man checking his wallet, the judge relented. ?That?s all right. You don?t have to pay now.?
The young man replied, ?I?m just seeing if I have enough for two more words.?

Montie Saga fanned by NPP media.
With all the nasty comments going in the media, when did the supreme court act? It is only when it got closer home.
When the gas and ewes were threatened with death, the courts brushed it aside. Al die be die saw no action. The president was threatened with assassination. The guy received a slap on the wrist, thanks to NPP media and activists. The list goes on and on.

Animal farm indeed. At the time this lunatic Ken Agyapong declared war on his radio station and called for extermination of Ewes and Gas, thees so called fresh snail and goat bribery judges did not see nothing wrong with that. All of a sudden, they said they fear for their lives. Something nasty is likely to happen in this country if care is not taken. Are these corrupt judges better than the whole of the Ewe and Ga ethnic groups. They should rather kill these three guys and let's move on. There are many ways of killing a cat. Apology to Dr. Kwabena Adjei. Are the judges better human beings than the Ewes and the Gas? They should sentence them to death. I will be sad if they dont get the death sentence. Nonsense.

Mr Baako contempt is here to stay what we should be advocating for is the sanity on the airwaves,radio station owner must leave behind the agendas behind the formation of those radio stations.We should also speaks against the NCA for issuing licenses to polititians to operate radio station,can anyone even tell the numbers of radio stations across the country?gradually we re getting to a stage where they the NCA can not control their actions and problems this stations post to society,they ll soon blame logistical constraints as reasons why they can't monitor them,if they re not the monitoring body then what inputs has those task to do do involve in the granting of the radio lience?.Someone should to a research into those behind the various radio stations from the districts way to the capital Accra and break it down by the regimes for us to see which political party ll be guilty of the mess,we re gradually destroying everything in this country.The time has come for the three arms of governments to reposition themselves on their core roles guaranteed by the constitution and play the role well to save this country from rot,the executives as we all know re the carbon copy of all evils and corruption,the next is the legislature where parliamentarians ve no minds of their own but has positioned themselves for the close call by the executives always.The only hope for us as a country is the third arm the judiciary and they must guid against executive infiltration to maintain the trust Ghanaians ve for them,the judiciary council and all the powers with them must try call for amendment of the constitution to stop the president from appointing the Chief Justice and all judges,an upper body must be set to oversee all judgement of the various court for possible biases in cases they ve ruled on and sactioned if possible.

Mr.Baako your pleading that the MuntieFM criminals must not be committed to jail is hypocritical. Why are you not running around making a case that poor folks who steal due to hunger are not to be jailed in our courts?Are the MuntieFM criminals special under our constitution and laws? The administration of justice in our country must not be seen as being selective. If in the view of the Justices they deserve jail terms to serve as a deterrent then so be it. Under our constitution the President can show Mercy through a presidential pardon. We must stop muddying up the administration of justice in Ghana with all these pleadings by the Elites in our society for their kind or foot soldiers. We must all be treated the same under our laws.

Honest, truthful reportage need not be affected by the judgement in the contempt case. Clearly, it is intolerable for people to use the media to fan tribal hatred or to incite people against others or threaten others for doing their work, just because they own or have access to media houses. The trial just must give sentence to deter and punish offenders.
