Watch Live: Battle of 'legal wits' at Supreme Court

The four lead counsel in the presidential election petition have locked horns at the Supreme Court to justify why President John Dramani Mahama should or should not be maintained as President of the Republic.

That “battle of legal wits” is currently underway at the Supreme Court after 48 days of sitting.

The address of the petitioners counsel focus on protecting the interests of their clients who want President Mahama deposed on the strength of the 1992 Constitution and that of President Mahama, who was declared winner of the December 7 and 8, 2012 presidential poll.

Lawyers for the conductor of the polls, the Electoral Commission (EC), and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) are praying the court to affirm the EC’s declaration of President Mahama as the winner of the presidential election, while counsel for President Mahama is also seeking to implore the court to maintain the status quo.
