Mr. Addison, belated albeit, may I add my voice to the others for your yeoman's contribution towards sustainable democracy in Ghana. Never shall we forget your excellent leadership role in the Supreme Court case of 2013, on the 2012 election results petition. Unfortunately, the outcome and reasoning were tainted without shame and fear of GOD, which is not good for our beloved country, Ghana.I salute you in the name of GHANA; carry on the good job my brother Philip.
