The former National Youth Organizer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Anthony Abaayifa Karbo has said Tsatsu Tsikata; counsel for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has never won a case in his life since he was called to the bar. �If Tony Lithur, counsel for President Mahama couldn�t break Bawumia, Quarshie Idun was just a walk over, and then we don�t even want to talk about Tsatsu. The mystic behind Tsatsu will be demystified as the cross-examination is going on. People like Tsatsu say they are lawyers in this country but I have never seen him won any case in court. Someone should pinpoint just a big case Tsatsu has won in court. ��I can tell you Nana Akufo-Addo, 75 authority cases he has won, tell me one big legal case Tsatsu Tsikata has won. I have heard one NDC lawyers saying he can�t wait to see Tsatsu in court and after he can die, then he should prepare to die. He will have to die after this cross-examination,� he said. Anthony Karbo was reacting to comments made by Abraham Amaliba, a member of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) that he can�t wait for Tsatsu Tsikata's cross-examination. Lawyer Amaliba is also purported to have said he will be glad if he dies after listening to Tsatsu's cross-examination of Dr. Bawumia. �The kind of witness that we have in the box is not an idiot, we (NPP) don�t have an idiot in the box, we don�t have a stupid person in the box, and we have a very intelligent young man who is behind this issue and Ghanaians will be surprised,� he said this on Asempa FM. He wondered why the NDC has so much confidence in Tsatsu Tsikata in a case he claims has been filed by a statistician, a banker and an economist who understands figures; a strategist (Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey) and an astute lawyer (Nana Akufo-Addo). Anthony Karbo aka �Afghanistan� said the rank and file of the NPP admires the star witness; Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia because he has proven beyond reasonable doubt that he is up to the task.
