The petitioner had earlier argued that, Thaddeus Sory should not be allowed to represent Charlotte Osei.

But in a U-turn, lawyer for the petitioner, Julius Opoku Agyei, said the withdrawal has become necessary because their client Maxwell Opoku Agyemang has caused another lawyer to enter appearance on his behalf in the same matter in a different court.

[contextly_sidebar id=”9wVKdHz4neyIugSx4im3UUg1C1hd3BCO”]The application for withdrawal was granted by the presiding Justice Ackaah- Boafo.

In his ruling, the judge said he was minded to grant the application because there was no rule that stops him from doing same. He further awarded cost of four thousand cedis in favour of the lawyer for the EC Chairperson.

Background

There is a petition forwarded to the Presidency from unnamed EC staff who are being led by Lawyer Maxwell Opoku-Agyemang, against Mrs. Osei, which is pending before the Chief Justice.

In the initial petition, a litany of allegations have been leveled against her, including spending GH¢3.9 million to partition an office, receipt of a Toyota Land Cruiser from the erstwhile John Mahama NDC government, spending about $14 million when the Public Procurement Authority had authorized her to use only $7.5 million, as well as attending Cabinet meetings during the tenure of the President John Mahama, among other issues.

Fresh petition

A new petition was subsequently filed for the impeachment of Charlotte Osei.

The petition was filed on August 18 2017 at the Presidency, and is demanding that a process to remove the EC boss should be commenced over alleged breaches of public procurement practices and provisions of the Public Procurement Act 2003 (Act 663), as well as gross financial mismanagement.

Unconfirmed reports say the petitioner is not an employee of the EC, but a concerned Ghanaian who wants the conduct of Mrs. Osei to be investigated on grounds of stated misbehavior and incompetence.

 Marriage sex counselling is a vital step for those whose marriage is sexless (truly sexless, that is, not Dean McDermott’s version of sexless). Even when there are a myriad of excuses — e.g., we’ve been married for years, we have four kids, our plates are so full the proverbial mashed potatoes are spilling onto the table — a marriage without sex can take both physical and emotional tolls.

There are ways, of course, to remedy this on your own: if you aren’t having sex, start having it (read: with each other). Even schedule it if you need to.Yet, marriage, sex counselling may be more beneficial than self-help (and self-love!), for it allows an objective party to guide you through the process by bringing up things you may not have already thought about. It also teaches you that a marriage without sex can be a sign of deeper problems.

Marriage sex counseling isn’t for everyone: You may simply not need it. But, if you fall into the following three categories, it’s something you should consider taking out for a roll in the hay:

1. You Are Disconnected From Your Spouse
If you and your spouse are disconnected, marriage sex counselling may not be an option; rather, it may be a requirement. Being disconnected from your spouse and filing for divorce is akin to sitting outside all day and getting a sun burn: it’s the predecessor. There may be a million reasons why you are disconnected, but marriage sex counselling, because it focuses on connecting you in the most literal way, can help reconnect and reignite. 

2. You Have Forgotten That Sex is Important

This area is where it can get a bit tricky: Men may read the “sex is important” line, nod their head in agreement, and shove this article in their wife’s face with a victorious “told you!” Women, on the other hand, may chuckle. But, the truth is that because sex is so important to a husband, it must become important to a wife. A woman wants a man to take interest in the things that interest her — going to the ballet, redecorating the den, listening to how Vicky at work is totally sleeping with Randy from the mail room — so it’s only fair to do the same. This is, of course, not to say that a wife needs to be sexually submissive to her husband, allowing him to have his way whenever the mood hits. But she should make an effort to give him the affection he seeks. And, here’s the best part: She should let herself enjoy it as well.

3. You Are Overly Frustrated
Frustration is often part of marriage just as it is part of most other aspects of life. But there is a difference with being frustrated on occasion (she got lipstick all over my work shirt, or he forgot to take the trash out again!) and being frustrated all the time. Intermittent frustration is normal, constant frustration is not. So, if you find yourself overly frustrated or about as anxious as an elephant meeting Mickey Mouse, then marriage sex counselling is worth a try. Through it, you can be taught how sex is a powerful way to alleviate the frustrations that tend to burden so many of us.
