Parties in deadlock over procedure in petition against presidential results The petitioners and lawyers of the president in the case challenging the legitimacy of President John Mahama have hit a deadlock over procedures to commence the case at the Supreme Court. A member of the legal team of the president, Abraham Amaleba, told Radio Ghana that they could not reach an agreement because the stakes are high. He said in a situation like this, the Supreme Court will have no option than to stamp its authority and determine the way forward for the case to commence. GBC
