Legal practitioner, Fatimatu Abubakari, explained that arguments and witnesses presented by Counsel for John Dramani Mahama have not been able to adduce enough evidence to establish their case. She was making reference to the objection raised by Lawyer Tsatsu Tsikata praying the apex court to struck out an application by the 1st and 2nd Respondents to present their witness statement. “So it is for the Petitioner to be excited that the respondents are not even willing to get in the box because they should have confidence in their own case and believe that they have made a strong case for the court to grant them the reliefs but as it appears they know that their case is weak”. She told GhanaWeb.
