Supreme Court ruling on delegate system will impose huge financial burden on political parties – Evans Nimako

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has warned that the Supreme Court's decision striking down the delegate system for internal party elections will significantly increase the cost of organising party primaries, placing a heavy financial burden on political parties."This issue of the judgment by the Supreme Court is something that the New Patriotic Party did not really support because we knew that if you want to ensure the growth of democracy, you need to have viable political parties.

Speaking on Joy FM’s Midday News on Wednesday, August 5, the party's Director of Elections, Evans Nimako, said the judgment would require political parties to organise larger-scale internal elections, making the process far more expensive than under the delegate system.
