Ghana on a ticking Time Bomb: How the Three Arms of Government are tinkering with the fuse…
The 1992 Constitution of Ghana makes representation a fundamental right of every Ghanaian
There are a vareity of issues that could lead to civil unrest, yet the Courts, Parliament and the Presidency are daily creating new issues…
“Few of the issues that could trigger the much talked about GhanaSpring are;”
● Bed bugs invasion of schools affecting underfed students
● Youth unemployment & underemployment
● Unpaid Salaries & poor conditions of service
● Dumsor is back and affecting even Prepaid Customers
● Cedi depreciation further compound prices of goods and services
● food Inflation over 22%+ and fuel inflation of 27%+ pushing overall inflation
● Food Shortage amid Fertilizer shortage
Some Akufo Addo government officials are recommending that farmers use Chicken poopoo as substitute for fertiliser while blaming Russia-Ukraine war
“With all the above possible triggers, the Courts, Parliament and the Presidency are still tinkering with the anger of Ghanaians…”
Representation of the PEOPLE:
If the PEOPLE are not represented, they will represent themselves and manifest their frustration and anger in a manner that could lead to a National Security crisis as stated by the National Security Minister to the judiciary.
The absenteeism of some MPs denied their constituents representation just as the people of SALL have been denied representation…
The 1992 Constitution of Ghana makes representation a fundamental right of every Ghanaian.
Yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling on the Assin North MP, injuncting Hon. Joseph Gyakye Quayson from performing his Parliamentary duties effectively denies his constituents of representation…
The substantive case is yet to be concluded, the outcome could be one of two, he will win or lose the case…
If Hon. Joseph Gjakye Quayson wins the substantive case, he remains MP and continues to represent his constituents, however, between now and then his constituents would have been denied representation…
“Hon. Martin Adjei-Mensah Korsah whose election is being challenged is holding on to his seat in Parliament because the case is moving very slowly relative to the Hon. Joseph Gyakye Quayson case…”
If following the precedent of Assin North, Martin Adjei-Mensah Korsah is also injucted, it will mean he cannot hold himself as Techiman South MP pending the outcome of the case and his constituents will be denied representation…
The ABSENTEE MPs automatically vacated their seats on the fifteenth (15th) day of continuous absenteeism without permission from the Speaker and must be injucted pending the outcome of the Privileges Committee hearing…
Hon. Adwoa Sarfo, Hon. Kennedy Agyepong and Hon. Henry Quartey MUST BE INJUCTED and prevented from holding themselves out as MPs for their respective constituencies, who will be denied representation until Bye-elections are held or they convince the Privileges Committee and Parliament…
Ghanaians will be following closely the declaration of vacancies in Parliament and the Bye-elections resulting from the outcome of the Privileges Committee hearing…
Ghanaians will also be following closely the the Supreme Court ruling on quorum for taking decisions such as the E-LEVY…
GOD BLESS OUR HOMELAND GHANA.
