I am confident Supreme Court will right the wrong – Bernard Mornah replies High Court

The flagbearer for the People’s National Convention (PNC), Bernard Mornah, has declared his intention to take his case to the Supreme Court after the High Court dismissed his lawsuit challenging the Electoral Commission’s (EC) disqualification of his candidacy in the 2024 presidential election.

In a media briefing on Monday, October 21, following the court’s ruling, Mornah contended that the Electoral Commission made an error in disqualifying him and ten other candidates.

He expressed strong belief in the legitimacy of his claims and highlighted the necessity for a higher court to reassess the situation.

Mr Mornah also revealed that he has already briefed his legal team about his plans to seek further interpretation from the Supreme Court.

“The EC made mistakes on their own forms and we are not allowed to make mistakes. The judge did not look at that and that defies ordinary thinking. What is the error that they are talking about? Is it a data entry error that they are talking about, is it an error of composition and how come those errors were not brought to court?

“The judge did not look at the issues that were brought before it and I have already instructed my lawyers that this case is not ending here and we will go to the Supreme Court and my lawyers say that they will quickly study the case,” he added.
