Truth is on my side, I won 2012 presidential election - Mahama

President John Mahama has stated, he did nothing wrong by emerging winner of the 2012 presidential election as declared by the Electoral Commission.

Mr. John Mahama is, therefore, optimistic that the judgment to be delivered by the panel of judges hearing the case at the Supreme Court challenging his declaration as winner, will be in his favour.

The president made the comments on Wednesday at Fadama, Accra, while addressing the National Chief Iman, Sheikh Osmanu Nuhu Sharabutu.

The president visited the Chief Imam ahead of the celebration of the Eid-Ul-Fitr festival to climax the 30 days of fasting in the month of Ramadan.

He reiterated his preparedness to accept the verdict of the Supreme Court. "We have no option than to accept the final Supreme Court verdict [judgment]; truth is on my side...I did nothing wrong," the president affirmed.

Three leading members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) - elections 2012 flagbearer; Nana Akufuo-Addo, his running mate; Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and National Chairman; Jake Obtsebi-Lamptey - have petitioned the Supreme Court challenging the EC's declaration of John Mahama as winner of the presidential polls.

The Court on Wednesday August 7,2013, heard the submission of oral addresses from counsel for the both petitioners and respondents and is set to pronounce judgment 15 days after the last hearing slated for August 14, 2013.

Tony Lithur, Counsel for the president, delivering his oral submission to the Court on Wednesday insists, Mr. Mahama won the election "fairly and squarely".

But Counsel for the petitioners, Philip Addison maintained that, they have provided enough evidence in their analysis to prove that indeed the outcome of the December 7 General Election, was affected by the various constitutional and statutory irregularities, violations and malpractices.

SPECIAL EDITION: PRAY OVER YOUR MARRIAGE and another love story

Dear readers, Words are powerful. I have learnt to let most of the things I say be positive and contain a prayer. Praying God's word over your marriage is important. Marriage is a blessing from God, but it is not always cherished the way it should be; Maybe because life gets busy, or we get distracted; Maybe because we start to take one another for granted; Or we disagree and let resentments hang on longer than they should. Hm! I was taught recently that the baggages we bring along from our past, into our marriages are a great burden as well. We take these baggages for granted but believe you me, most old baggages, are the cause of most broken marriages. Some baggages are in the form of old girlfriends and boyfriends who are witches and wizards, or left some kind of spiritual bonding with your spouse. Some are in the form of just clingy exes. Some baggages may even just be low self esteem or extreme high expectations. When joined as ''one'', a new battle to...

THE NAKED MARRIAGE

Welcome dear Readers, You must be thinking that I want to talk about sex today. But hey, we will be talking about that plus a lot more. True intimacy requires what happens in the bedroom plus a lot more. In the beginning, God created Adam and Eve, the first couple. They lived in an ideal world; no debt, no no crazy in laws, no baggage, no stress, no fighting and and also, NO CLOTHING! (Gen 2:25) When God reveals unto us a naked marriage, He is revealing to us something more than just walking around the house with no clothes on or just sex. He is revealing the importance of TRANSPARENCY, VULNERABILITY,ACCEPTANCE and INTIMACY at every level of the relationship. I am suggesting we become more intentional about working on our relationships this way. Love is honest. Love is trust. You open yourself to temptations when you decide not to live in a naked marriage. These temptations have led many down the path of doom. My husband used to believe trust in a marriage is a sacrifice. T...

MAKING THE CONSCIOUS EFFORT 1

Welcome Dear Readers, Have you ever heard someone say ,"I am still with you, ain't I?" "If i didn't love you, I would not be with you". Or better still, "No one marries his or her enemy." Well all these statements can be true but when it becomes an anthem , then whoever is singing it, is in fact missing something. Making a relationship work takes effort. Effort I describe as conscious. You decide with your heart, mind and energy,physical energy to work your relationship towards success. If you are married,with kids, it as well become double Effort. Years back, I would constantly nag my husband of not loving me because he paid more attention to people outside our home. His favorite line in response to me was, "Did I marry them? Am I not with you?" You may be laughing now thinking this man... But this statement would pierce my heart to the core. I would cry my eyes out and sometimes even refuse to eat. I recently learnt to pray ...
