National Communications Officer
and a member of the legal team of former President John Mahama has asked
members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) not to ‘give up’.
Speaking after a Supreme Court
ruling which dismissed Mr Mahama’s application to review the Supreme Court’s
decision to reopen his case, Sammy Gyamfi said, “we want to tell them that we
understand and appreciate your frustrations. We understand and appreciate that
and we are telling you don’t give up. We are not doing this for nothing. We
know what we are doing and we are dong this because of the love we have for
Ghana, particularly that of the Petitioner . . ”.
His comment comes on the back of
calls from some members of the party to withdraw the 2020 election petition
since the Supreme Court has thrown out several of their applications.
However, Sammy Gyamfi said in as
much as their ‘frustrations’ are understandable, there is the need to be
patient.
“Those who are crestfallen,
those who are discouraged and sometimes call us, worried and disturbed saying,
‘Why don’t you withdraw this matter?’, ‘You shouldn’t even go to court’ . . .
Let us all be patient with the legal team as we go through the process. We are
not abusing the court processes like some are suggesting and we have not defied
the orders of the court,” he noted.
