Lawyer Frank Davis, one of the legal team members representing the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has corrected his mistake that got him blasted by the general public when a military man was holding his bag to the Supreme Court.
It is commendable of Lawyer Frank Davis to have had a change of mind and attitude today following the huge criticism he suffered yesterday for allowing a soldier to carry his bag for him to the Supreme Court. It is believed he took some lessons perhaps and opted to be himself without any escort today.
Lawyer Frank Davis is a private legal practitioner and a member of the counsel for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, on the 2020 Election Petition filed by former President John Dramani Mahama.
Pictures of him being escorted by a soldier caused some serious political backlash on him and the military, with University of Ghana’s Prof. Ransford Edward Gyampo chastising him for having ‘uncivilized’ the military by his actions.
Today, the lawyer came in with a whole different composure as he walked with colleague lawyers into the courtroom.

He had his files packed in a brown envelope, his wig tuck in between his fingers on the left arm, and his black leather bag in the right hand.
The paparazzi got a good shot of him to present a just-perfect story of how he came through to the court today. Many have held to an argument that he did not cause the soldier to carry his bag for him as suggested but the soldier opted to be courteous and assist.
As to whether there is any truth in this remains unknown. Frank Davis has remained tight-lipped on this and seems quite comfortable not playing to the gallery so he court remains focus on the case at the court.
But one thing must be noted here. He has always been walking to the courtroom from the car pack with his belongings carried by himself until just yesterday.
