    The law has never been about the truth. Its based on EVIDENCE.
    In this case, the evidence exists but the NPP wants to manipulate it. Now, the EC is bringing out different Pink sheets in some places which is alien to the one ...

    The court has dismissed NDC 's objection.
    Case.
    Case thrown out

  • yaw 11 months ago

    To my understanding , it means the case will now be heard with the presence of the ndc party given the chance to argue their case. EC now needs to proof to the court the evidence of the 'duress' and the intimidation

  • Logic 11 months ago

    The evidence of the duress is abound. Both video and audio visual evidence are all over the place.The returning officers themselves who supposedly did these declarations are there to explain.None of them is dead. I wander why ...

    Yeah. And the EC + presiding officers would be put into the box to be cross examined under oath. Cause and effect has to be LEGALLY proven.
    Don't forget; "it's a court of law, not necessarily a court of justice".

  • GH8 11 months ago

    It's Returning Officers not Presiding Officers. If the people who are talking about the EC trying to subvert the people are very much afraid of recollection. I say this because every valid vote cast in these disputed constit ...

    Its because you dont know what goes into recolation.

  • @Logic, Evidence of your illogical claims rather abound. 11 months ago

    Listen, don't think just R.O(s) making a mere claim of duress in the presence of security must prove those claims with incontrovertible evidence, not just an afterthought under the influence of NPP EC.

  • @Logic, Evidence of your illogical claims rather abound. 11 months ago

    Do u expect police to say they lost control?

  • FatGH 11 months ago

    First, you need to prove the case of duress in court. if the court is convincved, then it will direct the EC to recollate or do something else

  • KOFI 11 months ago

    Duress is what the NPP know they cannot prove that is why they are going for Mandamus which puts the power in the hands of the EC to do whatever it wishes. Just to stampede the process then declare the NPP as visitors.

    How can the NPP be superior to the NDC when the NDC has got over 57% while the Npp is going to trail behind 40%? Just say you are relying on judges who do dirty work for you!

  • Esi 11 months ago

    Am surprised. NDC sympathisers were hailing the judiciary, when they ruled in their favour by overturning the first ruling and ordered the EC/ NDC back to the high court.

    First thing when ndc takes power is to remove the npp infested EC. Choosing of a new EC should be more transparent. Second thing for Mahama is to purge the judiciary from npp loyalists.
