Bag bin should stop being a law onto himself and trying to play God. Where what he says is final

Repent, for the Kingdom of God is near. The Kingdom of God is within your reach. Don't miss this opportunity. The alternative is everlasting punishment. Just accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, and let Him be the Lo ...

We want these kind of leaders in Ghana. Bravo to you, S.K Bagbin.
It is not what he says is final. He is quoting from the Constitution which has been tested before. Let us see what happens on the 7th Nov. The Constitution is above everyone including the judiciary. Some people are behaving l ...

Corruption at the Rent Control Department in Accra is shocking. This phenomenon, is not checked, will have negative effect on National Security and the economy.
It has been like that many years now, 1999+
This idiotic man called a speaker is about to commit a high crime. Your dreams of becoming a speaker should NDC win the elections will never materialize, so relax.
Commit what high crime the people in supreme court are lawyers like him or you are uneducated person can you allow someone to determine what happens in your house between you and your wife
This Bolgatanga man is becoming a tyrant in Ghana. I think he has to be told plain in the face that he is not an MP but just an overseer of the house with responsibility to direct the affairs of the house. No wonder Muntaka d ...

@Agyenco (UK)
If Ghana was such conducive for you, you wouldn't have been in UK washing toilets and bathing corpses.
I one aspect l like about Bagbin is that, you can't scare him from doing what is right. You can put a gun on his HEAD but you can't coerce to frivolous favour you against the interest of the nation.
@ Obimpe:
THE SUPREME DIDN’T JUST JUMP INTO THE FRAY; IT WAS THE MAJORITY THAT PETITIONED THEM TO INTERVENE TO AVOID THE SEEMINGLY IMPENDING CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS.

are out of your mind? Is it not same constitution that was used?
Hey you foolish guy you are insulting him, he is idiot like you and your family especially your father
You sound like a lunatic. Keep quiet and support your speaker. Idiot
The Donald Trump of Ghana is Rt. Hon. Alban Bagbin. The NPP can manipulate the supreme court justices but they cannot manipulate the supreme constitution of Ghana.
You naa, u lack normal understanding of issues
@Samuel wat can u do? U think those in the supreme court are God? They're human beings like u and I. They can equally make mistakes. Wat he's doing is to save the country. If NDC also walks out of parliament tomorrow wat will ...

You are an ignorant fool.The supreme court is the final arbiter of any problem in Ghana What it says becom3s law whether you like it or not and there is nothing you can do about it.
The supreme court is not supreme over the 1992 constitution of Ghana. They can't decide for parliament.
@ Man pass Man: ( YOU ARE ANOTHER IDIOT WHO HIDES UNDER ALIASES TO SPEW TRASH)
ALAN BAGBIN SHOULD ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS, AND EVEN IF HE ANSWERS NO TO JUST ONE OF THEM HE SHOULD BE IMPEACHED IMMEDIATELY.
1. Did the NP ...

Ghana is sweet
TWEAA...NO CRISES BUT YOUR PARLIAMENT IS CLOSED...TWEAA.
God will Bless Mr Speaker for standing up to these gangsters, destructive creatures who have destroyed everything in this beautiful country
Today this gentleman has won my admiration. The only man in Ghana with the balls to speak his mind and for Ghana.
This man has been a big disappointment as Speaker of parliament. He sometimes forgets who he is.
Fool
Go to school
Exactly he’ll see what happens
Democracy is not like a village chief's palace or the Asantehene's court. There are rules and regulations governing each arms of government. The constitution is crystal clear on the regulations. The SC and CJ and the presiden ...

Northern women don't control men
How old are you? You think like a newborn baby.. Grow up. I am sure your parents are vulgar.
Who is ready to screw this guy's head strongly on his head? He doesn't seem to be functioning correctly, as folks in my village would say.
Alban, don't mind that idiot woman, judges with lies. Useless judges, idiots
Akuffo Addo is ruling Ghana like a village chief who wants to control every public institution, under this useless administration led by Akuffo has turned every public institution into NPP headquarters, SHAMELESS president
AT THE END OF IT ALL, BAGBIN SAID NOTHING SENSIBLE. ALL WAS CONFRONTATIONAL AND TRYING TO BE A LAW UPON HIMSELF. HE'S A DISAPPOINTMENT
@TomTom....Some people ARE a law onto themselves already Oooo. They think the even the constitution is subservient to them. BAGBIN is only being an advocate for the rule of law.
That's why you are TomTom the toffee!
It's about to go down........
Bagbin has been a bullying and lawless speaker who has eventually turned the current parliament into a lawless one. It's a big shame.
Ashamed to admit that majority issue letter to ask him recall parliament. Bahaving as if he is doing that on his own...
It's a life of country to experience such leaders for us know what we take for granted
Am sure if OSEI KYEI MENSAH BONSU was still the majority leader all this bruhaha will not have risen. It is dialogue not court. If NPP want to use COURT NDC MPS and SPEAKER will be using technicalities till 6 January 2025. I ...

This guy be too known! What is this with this self entitlement?? No one voted for you for that position. The president was voted for by the citizens so don't compare yourself to the president. Old idiot!!
If Bagbin is brave he should physically try to prevent any of the 4 MPs from entering parliament to do their lawful work. What kind of stupidity is this, Bagbin? Do you think your funny accent is the law?
Clear office! You are too arrogant!

Nonsense. Who said there is constitutional crisis?
That's your imagination. Hallucinations. Did CJ say that?
Senile Bagbin
Bagbin is so blinded by partisanship so much that he is making a FOOL of himself! His actions are leading to stupidity and he should be stopped.
You are a Lair and Fake ok.You Bagbin shall go to the Ghana's history book as bad partizan Speaker Ghana ever had.
Bagbin thinks he is smarter than everyone. Why didn't he address the sitting arrangements for tomorrow? Pride is consuming Bagbin.
How will you be remembered? You’re the worst speaker ever in the history of ghana
Eeeiish Number 3. Nsemhunu nkoaaa
Torkornoo is shallow. One does not have to declare an intention to run for election on another ticket to cross carpet. It is sufficient that one's actions amount to having changed affiliation with the original party.
Worst speaker ever
You are damn right sir.
What IS good for the gander IS also good for goose.
If the Former speaker can do IT,then you too can.
The laws IS for everyone No matter what party you belong to, period.
Alban Bag In The Bin is a very confused man.He has no shame.He has overthrown the government by his actions.He is one guy who from the start is bent on stopping government business.
Ghana whether the NPP or the NDC should never give Tyrant man Alban Bagbin any governmental or political position due to his character and show of power.

I think for peace to prevail, it's will be better to have no majority and minority in parliament now.
As a matter of fact,both NDC and NPP have the same number of seats.

It seems Bagbin is frustrated that he didn't succeed in his plot with the NDC to cripple govt
True. When I heard the Speaker of Parliament speak today, I said waoo, this man knows his job. It was clear to me that Akuffo Addo and the Chief Justice Tokono do not know their jobs well!!!
Mr Speaker is a disgrace to our democracy, who does he think he is, nobody is above the law we can not allow him to make Ghana a lawless country. All of us is under the constitution of Ghana which is the law. When the suprem ...

If the NPP claim rt.hon.speaker Mike Oquaye made mistake,then he should be in court by now for deceiving the public.What a banana republic.Our leaders must be serious
Fellow Ghanaians, the supreme court will now be engaging in criminality if it wants to impose the current NPP caucus as the the majority. The constitutional language is clearly defined, no white and black spot.
Torkornu will definitely fail. Wicked woman!
This guy is out of his nose? Why is he been soo disrespected?
YOU ARE HAPPY wITH WHAT YOU ARE SAYING.
YOU ARE DESTROYING GHANA IF YOU DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T THINK YOU ARE MENTALLY SOUND.
Are you sure. Then why do you close the house. Cheap speaker. I don't blame you.
I blame the speaker of Parliament because he is the cause of this chaos in Parliament. Why did he declare some seats vacant while the people are still serving their constituencies
