The Prempeh Assembly Hall Magistrate Court, in Kumasi, presided over by Her Worship Debora Gyaawa, is set to adjudicate in the over 1,000 votes which have been transferred into the Manhyia South Constituency in the Ashanti region.
The case follows complaints filed by the Parliament Candidate for Manhyia South constituency, Lawyer Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, through the Electoral Commission.
Armed with the EC Regulations 23 (2) (c) and (d), 24 (2) (f) and 25 (1) of C.I. 91, lawyer Baffour Awuah is praying the court to annul the said transfers.
Lawyer Baffour Awuah argues that the basis of the objection is that the over 1,000 voter transfers involve persons who do not live in the Manhyia south constituency.
On Friday September 20, 2024 Landlords of the properties, where the over 1,000 registered voters purport to live,were in court, to categorically deny that the said persons live in the said properties.
