General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie says he is elated by the Supreme Court ruling which allows respondents to ask questions based on pink sheets not tendered in evidence.According to him, the ruling vindicates the petitioners decision to challenge the conduct of the 2012 general election in court.The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled in favour of counsel for the third respondent, Tsatsu Tsikata, enabling him to ask questions on pink sheets which had not been filed as part of the affidavits by any of the parties, provided it is related to the irregularities raised by the petitioners in the case.Counsel for the petitioners, Philip Addison had objected to a pink sheet introduced in court by Mr. Tsikata for the key witness in the case, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to identify. It was overruled.Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme Tuesday, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie said the ruling has exposed the double standards of the respondents.He scoffed at the decision by Mr. Tsikata to bring in a pink sheet not tendered in evidence to prove an irregularity when hitherto he [Tsatsu]argued that there were no irregularities in the 2012 elections.The NPP scribe was of the opinion that Tsatsu Tsikata "scored an own goal" by veering off his party’s position to deny any irregularity in the election.Sir John as he is popularly called said the NDC is now clutching at straws because all their plans to delay the case has fallen flat in their case.He wondered why the NDC is now running away from their own shadows when they claim the NPP had no case.Sir John stated unequivocally that the erroneous impression being created that NPP is only seeking to annul votes of President Mahama is part of the NDC propaganda.He explained that the petitioners are also praying the court to annul some votes won by the NPP flagbearer, Nana Akufo-Addo.In a rebuttal, General Secretary of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia maintained that the petitioners "demonstrated in bad faith".He noted that the ruling by the Judges is the beginning of the humiliation the NPP will suffer at the end of the case.The NDC scribe posited that they have ample evidence to prove that the petitioners claims are just a figment of their imagination.Asiedu Nketia commended the Judges for not allowing the theatrics of the petitioners lawyers to sway them in their judgment.
