The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has declared their intention to file a restraining order at the Supreme Court seeking to bar the Clerk of Parliament from swearing in three recently declared New Patriotic Party (NPP) Members of Parliament-elect. The constituencies in question are Tema Central, Techiman South, and Okaiwei Central.
According to the NDC, the electoral outcomes in these constituencies were fraught with irregularities, and the party has already initiated legal challenges at various levels to contest the results.
They argue that allowing the MPs-elect to be sworn in before these cases are resolved could undermine justice and constitutional accountability.
