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.

Minority Leader for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) caucus in Parliament, Haruna Iddrisu has stressed that the party could have won the 2020 elections if it was not fraudulent.

Speaking at a symposium in Accra in memory of the party’s founder, late president Jerry John Rawlings, he charged party members to raise their heads high because the NDC remains a political force in the reckoning.

“To the NDC party, hold your heads high and hold your heads in pride that barely less than 30 days after the demise of a charismatic, popular [party Founder, the former President Rawlings], NDC could still, but for electoral fraud, win [the parliamentary] election [with] 137 [seats versus NPP also winning] 137 seats. This signifies that our party has been birthed and [is] a new political force in the reckoning.”
