The Bono Regional Chairman of NPP, Kwame Baffoe has alleged that the presidential candidate for the NDC, Ex-president John Dramani Mahama begged lawyer Tsatsu Tsikata before he accepted to represent him in court.
He made these allegations on live TV when he was hosting Nsempa Fie program on Wontumi TV, January 17, 2021. Abronye DC as popularly known, claimed that he got his information from a top NDC official whilst he was onboard a plane from Accra to Kumasi.
According to him, the top official who leaked this information to him on condition of anonymity indicated that the NDC knew very well that they will lose the case but are only going to court just to please the supporters.
He further alleges that the top official also told him (Abronye) that, lawyer Tsatsu Tsikata initially refused to represent Mahama due to the incompetent and lack of evidence nature of the petition. He also explained that it took the intervention of Tsatsu Tsikata’s wife before the lawyer finally agreed to his pleadings.

The chairman in his submissions clarified later that, the whistle blower happens to be one of the National executive members of the NDC who pointed out to him that the move was initiated to avoid disgracing John Dramani Mahama and to avoid public ridicule.
Abronye DC went on to justified his claims by referring his listeners and viewers to ask about why Tsatsu Tsikata’s name was not on the first petition that was filed before the Supreme Court
