Mahama is not a retaliatory president – Stan Dogbe after receiving petition from demonstrators.

Deputy Chief of Staff, Stan Dogbe, has said that the uninterrupted demonstration by the coalition of political parties against the suspension of the Chief Justice shows the nature of democracy President John Dramani Mahama is building.

Stan Dogbe told the demonstrators that President Mahama is not a retaliatory president.

He said this after receiving the petition from the demonstrators led by the Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, at the forecourt of the Jubilee House in Accra on Monday, May 5.

He said, “We are happy that your process started this morning and ended very peacefully. That in itself is a very strong message about the democracy that President Mahama wants to instill.

“If it were the case, like over the past 8 years, I am sure that the retaliatory politics that we talk about wouldn’t have been the case. Your referencing retaliatory politics is an admission that the 8 years of President Akufo-Addo were not the best.

“You are assured that President Mahama, as every Ghanaian knows, is not one of those politicians; he doesn’t believe in retaliatory Politics. He is described as ‘too much father for all persons’. Whatever decisions that are being taken now are in line with our 1992 Constitution.”

According to the organizers, the suspension of the Chief Justice and the petitions against her are politically motivated and constitute an attack on judicial independence.
