Politics of Sunday, 20 December 2020Source: www.ghanaweb.comIt’s naive to tell NDC demonstrators to go court – Martin KpebuLegal Luminary, Martin KpebuExecutive Director of Human Rights and Governance Centre, Martin Kpebu, has chided persons urging the largest opposition party, National Democratic Congress (NDC), and its supporters to go to court to seek redress on the results of the December 7 elections instead of embarking on nationwide demonstrations.
