Blame your woes in court on your ineptitude not Judges – Egyapa Mercer to NDC
Member of Parliament for the Sekondi Constituency
in the Western Region of Ghana Andrew Egyapa
Mercer has asked members of the National
Democratic Congress (NDC) to seek accountability
from the leadership of their party.

According to him, for a party to order them to hit
the streets and jubilate because they have won the
elections and go to court without evidence to ask
for a rerun because no one won the election is a
reason enough for members of the party to seek for
clarifications from the party.

He made this known when he spoke in an interview
on Accra-based Asempa FM.

The Member of Parliament for the Sekondi
Constituency noted that currently, the NDC has
changed its narrative since their case which does
not hold water has exposed them and are trying to
convince their members who are angered by the lack
of evidence with the fact that the Supreme Court
is not being fair.

“Ghanaians have seen the NDC and have realized
they do not have a case. They’ve gone to court
without evidence for the court to rule in their
favour. The petition is coming to a close and they
want to change the narrative and paint the court
black. Right from the beginning, you went to court
with a petition full of errors, the court granted
you the liberty to amend, right from the beginning
the respondents asked the court to throw your
shambolic case away but the court allowed for a
fair hearing.

So the NDC lawyers think they are the only people
who know the law in the country. Let’s speak the
truth because Ghana is for all of us. If the NDC
has a better case in court, this is not what we
will be seeing. I’ve had a conversation with NDC
members and they are angry with their leadership
for lying to them that they won the election and
caused them to hit the streets to cause all forms
of commotion. Now when it got to the time that we
have to go to court, the leadership said no one
won the election.

NDC members are shocked and are asking why their
party leaders are deceiving them when they know
that they don’t have any case in court. Because
they realized that their application won’t go
anywhere, they have changed the narrative. Now,
this Supreme Court is not been fair. I will plead
with the members of the NDC to open their eyes and
see the lie been thrown to them by their party’s
leadership,” he said on Asempa FM.
