The hearing of an injunction application filed by Samuel Apea-Dankwah, a disqualified presidential aspirant, has been postponed by the Accra High Court, now set for Thursday.
Following his disqualification by the Electoral Commission (EC), Mr. Apea-Dankwah is pursuing a judicial review to contest the ruling. In his bid to prevent any EC activities related to the upcoming presidential election, he requested the court to issue a halt.
During the presentation of the injunction application on Monday, Apea-Dankwah’s legal team requested an adjournment to Thursday, explaining that they needed more time to respond to a motion filed by the EC opposing the injunction.
Although the court proposed to reconvene on Tuesday, Mr. Apea-Dankwah’s lawyers succeeded in pushing for a Thursday rescheduling.
After the proceedings, Mr. Apea-Dankwah spoke with Citi FM, revealing that his legal team has also submitted a request for the EC to provide documentation that outlines the criteria and decision-making process behind his disqualification.
