Issa Mahmoud Ali, the communications director of the opposition NDC in the Techiman South Constituency has fingered elements of his own party for various nefarious activities that culminated in the Party’s defeat in the 2020 parliamentary elections.

Issa Mahmoud singled out the party’s director of elections in the 2020 elections, one Abdul Hameed Zakaria of contributing significantly to the party’s downfall in the 2020 elections.

In a report filed by MyNewsGh, Issa Mahmoud accuses Abdul Hameed of forging signatures on the nomination forms of the parliamentary candidate, Christopher Beyere.

Among other allegations, Mahmoud also accused his election director of masterminding the violence that claimed two lives at the Techiman South Collation Center.

The Seven-member Supreme Court panel hearing the 2020 Election Petition has ordered the legal team of John Mahama to comply with its orders and file their witness statements by close of Wednesday.

The Court also warned that failure to comply with their order will attract sanctions as imposed by law.

The caution follows an explanation by Counsel for the Petitioner, Tony Lithur that they had opted not to file witness statements as ordered by the court due to pending applications earlier filed.

According to him, Mr. Mahama has filed a stay of proceedings along with an application for the apex court to review the dismissal of his permission to serve the EC some 12 interrogatories.

However, the court insisted that it’s earlier order must be complied with, failure of which can result in the dismissal of the petition.

Tony Lithur, lawyer for the petitioner in the 2020 Election Petition, John Dramani Mahama has come under severe fire this morning at the Supreme Court following his team’s failure to comply with the order of the Apex Court.

Legal team for John Mahama failed to comply with an order of the Supreme Court which instructed them to file witness statements pending the hearing of the substantive petition.

According to Mr Lithur, their failure to comply with the order of the Court is because of their review of the court’s earlier decision on their interrogatories.

However, a visibly unenthused seven-member panel would have none of the excuses.

After minutes of back and forth between the bench and Mr Lithur, the court has suspended sitting briefly to consider the issues.

More Soon….
