SC'S ORDER
WITH RESPECT TO THE NHIS REGISTRANTS; WAS THE EC DULL OR JUST BEING
MISCHIEVOUS?
After the
many noise which grew out of whether the Supreme Court(SC) with respect to the Abu
Ramadan and Evans Animako Vrs the Electoral Commission and the Attorney
General(AG) case ordered for the deletion of the NHIS registrants from the
existing biometric voters' register and after an opportunity should be given to
such to prove their eligibility for a re-registration or not, one of the
members of the Supreme Court judges, who sat on the case, Justice Dotse,
speaking at a training programme for judges on the new electoral law - C.I. 91
in Accra on Thursday, 26th May, 2016 has explained that the SC did order for
the deletion of the NHIS registrants in the existing biometric voters' register
but after, such should be given an opportunity to prove their eligibility for a
re-registration, which is very much against the claim by the Electoral Commission(EC)
that the SC didn't order for that.
Critical
Thinkers International(CTI) are very happy that the SC through Justice Dotse
has cleared the air and through that has gotten us vindicated for our open
support of the group of people who are of the view that the SC ordered for the
deletion of the NHIS REGISTRANTS from the biometric voters' register and a
re-registration of such who are eligible, through our article titled "THE
EC SHOULD STOP PUSHING "STUPIDITY"".
Seriously,
it is still a puzzle to the group how the EC, some lawyers, PHD holders,
academicians, social commentators and others whom are considered very bright in
our society were out in the public spilling the contrary to the SC's order.
An order so
simple that a very dull kindergarten pupil could even easily read, understand
and interpret.
And so we
ask, were such people who were spilling the contrary or in support of the EC
with respect to the NHIS Registrants' order by the SC dull?
Were they
so dull that they could not understand and interpret this simple ruling by the
SC or they were just being mischievous?
Finally,
eventhough Justice Dotse has officially or unofficially cleared the air, we
will still insist Abu Ramadan continues with his push of the EC Chairperson,
Mrs Charlotte Osei together with the rest of the six commissioners of the EC to
the SC for contempt of court, if not CTI will take up the matter and push it to
court.
Thank you
Hhhmm, may
God be praised always
