A Koforidua High Court has adjourned to Monday, January 6, 2025, to rule on an application filed by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to set aside an interim injunction preventing the swearing-in of Ernest Kumi as the Member of Parliament-elect for the Akwatia constituency.
On Thursday, January 2, the court granted the request of the NDC parliamentary candidate, Henry Boakye Yiadom, against the EC, Ernest Kumi, and the Clerk of Parliament, prohibiting Kumi's swearing-in.
Counsel for the NPP, Gary Nimako Marfo Esq., who moved the application, argued that the ex parte injunction was filed based on a petition that was improper before the court.
He urged the court not only to set aside the injunction order but also to dismiss the petition itself.
