Dr. Aidoo’s Bemoans Supreme Court’s Role in Parliamentary Proceedings
A senior member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and former Ghanaian ambassador to the Netherlands, Dr. Tony Aidoo, expressed strong views against the Supreme Court’s involvement in parliamentary proceedings.
Dr.
Aidoo argued that the Supreme Court’s ruling, in the context of certain parliamentary matters, should not be observed by Parliament.
He emphasized that the Speaker of Parliament was merely applying a constitutional provision that automatically comes into effect in such cases and that the Supreme Court had no authority to interfere.
“The speaker of parliament did not make a ruling or an order.
Article 97 clause 1 and the sub-clauses operate automatically. They are akin to what in criminal law we may say you are guilty because the law says you are strict liability under criminal law.”
