Policy Analyst Senyo Hosi has stated that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) had to join the suit for the interpretation of Article 66 (2) just because there is a mistrust of the judiciary.
According to him, it is legally a disgrace for the opposition party to file a suit when there is no ambiguity in the matter; however, it was politically prudent to sue on the matter.
He noted that the opposition has a mistrust of the judiciary and therefore believes that it will be imperative for an interpretation to be given before the story changes with time.
“Legally, it is a disgrace, but politically, I understand them because there is a total mistrust. The only thing I read here is mistrust of our judicial system.
The NPP feels that if they don’t get inside the thing, the perceived influence infleuence they think that the ruling government has on the judiciary can be used to create a new story. That is what this whole thing is about. But this whole thing from number one to number 5 is a waste of time,”he said on TV3’s Keypoints on Saturday October 31, 2026.
He holds the view that there are matters of merit that the Supreme Court must deal with and not such frivolous issues.
