    Ata, it appears you've misconstrued the reason/s why the feuding parties went to the court. SC ruling was not to interpret NDC constitution. Rather, at law, to answer if "unregistered Ghanaian could represent a political part ...

    Osman, I couldn't agree more with your explanation and opinion of the Supreme Court ruling on this issue. The Supreme Court ruling was NOT to interpret the NDC Party Constitution, but actually the democratic rights of a Ghana ...

    LONTO-BOY, I hope you are well, I have not read your contributions on Ghanaweb for some time, though I must admit that I do not check all articles and news items, let alone the comments. Perhaps you have been very busy.

    MASSA KOFI, I'm doing fine. I do often visit/browse Ghanaweb for news stories and articles, but just that I don't usually pass comments.

    The Supreme Court cannot be wrong regardless of the decision. one can disagree with the court's and set out the reasons why. The court's decision is a fait accompli.

    Esi Attah, are you implying that the majority justices were scared so they ruled in favour of Zanetor? That would be dangerous for the administration of justice in Ghana. I do not believe so. My argument is that the SC made a ...

    The supreme court is increasingly running a ring around itself with dodgy decisions which will throw the rule of law and its relevance into disrepute.

    Okonko Palm, once the use of the NHIS card as evidence of Ghanaian citizenship/nationality was ruled unconstitutional in 2015, there was nothing wrong with the second ruling on the removal. I also do not believe the implemen ...

    "a mistaken decision of a court.", as you wrote.
