Is the court higher than the Parliament? What kind of nonsense is this. Very soon the table will turn and we will see if the NPP will run to the court again
What is this hullabaloo in Ghana Parliament?
By Ghana constituion, of good reason and sound logic, a seat of Ghana parliament becomes vacant by death, resignation, overdue absenteeism, documented self admitted crossing of carpet, and pronounced guilty of crime or impeachment. None of these violations is committed by the MPs that NDC seks to remove. MPs are not robots. They have liberty and rights to independent decisions, freedom of choice and common sense judgment. Like any reasonable being, they can plan today and make arrangements to affect their future without neglecting their current duties in parliament. A sitting MP can decide not to contest again to come to the next parliamen. It is not a crime. So it should not become a crime in parliament for another to decide to contest for any party in the future. He must still do his parliamentary work without hinderance nor neglect of duty. MPs, take oath to become responsible to the state and get security for their work. They can be sanctioned by their party, if it is justified but the parties cannot interfere in their work in the parliament. The decisions of Prof Quaye on Fomena MP, Asiamah and Mr Bagbin, succumbing to NDC outside parliament, to remove Haruna and Muntaka were ambiguous and confusing. Parties can lobby through their MPs to influence decisions in the house. They cannot directly decide for their caucus in parliament. it violates the indipendence of parliarment. The request by Haruna and others to make the seats of some MPs, sitting with them in the house vacant is interolant, wicked and unwaranted. No one has resigned. No process is initiated to impeach them by their constituents nor to remove them by parliarment. There is no motion for violation of any rule of parliament against the MPs. Such an illegal motion for their removal may even require two thirds of the house to support the motion. The 8th Ghana parliament has seen a lot of waste. Speaker Bagbin should stop this now to make the remaining two months of parliament productive. He must protect his legacy.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 it won't work ogyimi dodo that is the rule in the parliament you know stop the nonsense.
NPP thinks they can be abusing our Supreme courts but soon those laws will be amended ✍️
The npp party should be voted out , simple
It's not a controversy. It was not a controversy towards 2020 it's your las resort. And you know judgment will be in mid 2025 just like the anti LGBTQ+ case.
Shame unto the current democracy of GH under Nana Addo
The court will hear this case after elections, just like the LGBTUBOSQS
Because they have packed up the supreme court with their judges
What nonsense
As though the table went turn
What happened to precedence
I think this time the supreme Court should deal with this issue with urgency so it doesn't end up like domlevos case where someone was committing a crime day light but nothing could be done and the ruling came too late and there was no deterent of any sort
Always undermining parliament! NNP, when it suits…smh
What kind of foolish talking is that? They have to write to you that they are going independent? So assuming they will win as independent candidates, will they still be part of the party since they have not written to you? Holding a degree does not make you intelligent indeed .
This party must go to opposition forever!
This is seriously nonsense how come you majority leader filean injunction against such you are heading to opposition
He has run to unanimous FC to do the bidding of the NPP.
Become it's packed with your people???
Why the supreme Court????
That's why they have packed our courts with their faithfuls
Senseless suit! Using the court all the time to sabotage the truth! They did that in the lgbtq+ law and want to do same here! Tomorrow will come and the table will turn. Don’t cry when the other side does same that day.
That’s why they arranged the court to suit them so they can always do propaganda and engage in double standards ! Posterity will judge every person taking this nation for granted!
We are waiting for the speaker to say something about this nkwasiafo npp fool's in parliament
They always interpret the law to suit them… such nonsense
The Ghanaian parliament is becoming something else. Why should it be another arm of government that determines how the House conducts its business?
He's criminal mates are in the supreme court
You this man is “kwasea panyin” because you only think of yourself and your foolish and useless NPP but doesn’t respect the constitution and Ghanaians who voted for you fool . Kwaseampayin
Double standards always.
What kind of country are we building?
Lols
How can he injunct parliament when the Supreme Court has already made a determination that parliament cannot be injuncted in the performance of its constitutional duties. This is a clear abuse of the legal system. As is the case, the current political chief justice will sure aid in putting the matter on ice by holding up its determination like the lgbtq bill.
They knew what the supreme court can do for them (npp) so they ran to supreme court for an injection.If I may ask does a law that apply some Years ago changes today? And these supreme court judges too will rule in their favor
Supreme Court is more powerful than Parliament 😂 only in Ghana. Only in Ghana that u can find democracy turned upside down😂 separation of powers thrown out the door and rule of law is turned into rule of madness 😂😂what a mockery my country has become 😂😂😂
He knows where to get aa easy unanimous decision.
This man think we are zombees
Did the fomena MP write any letter to the majority leader in 2020 when he was thrown out of parliament by the NPP and prof Mike Oquaye because he decided to go independent ??
There are two precidents set in Ghana to declare parliamentarians sacked . 1.Alhassan Wayo Seini in 2006 and 2. Fomena MP Andrew Asiamah Amoako in 2020
What's wrong with seeking constitutional interpretation of a CI.
Many Ghanaians are emotionally biased.
Smart move majority leader 😂
very good lawyer
The supreme Court now determines what Parliament does, does it make sense?
Running to their allies, the Supreme court which has lost its reputation because Akufo Addo is a president
Parliament is an independent body, fools from NPP does not know that the Judiciary have no say in the affairs of the parliament.
Total nonsense because they have filled the judiciary with their own party members.
The speaker will declare the seats vacant especially if there’s a precedent 😂😂😂
Look at this evil majority MP in parliament. Akuffo Addo and his MPs are so all evil.
