The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced its decision to supervise the presidential and parliamentary primaries of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
The EC announced this in a statement saying its decision came after one of the aspirants, Dr. Kwabena Duffuor withdrew his injunction against the elections
The EC had earlier announced it would not supervise the primaries following the suit.
Dr. Duffuor on May 9 filed an injunction against the primaries over some discrepancies with the delegates register.
He later withdrew the suit on Friday, May 12 and agreed to have the issues resolved internally.
The EC has since agreed to supervise the primaries after meeting the leadership of the NDC.
“Following the discontinuance of the Application for Injunction seeking to restrain the Electoral Commission from conducting the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Primaries by the applicants, namely Dr_ Kwabena Duffuor and Mr. Edgar Asamoah Boateng, all legal barriers have been removed and the way is now clear for the Electoral Commission to supervise the conduct of the NDC Primaries slated for Saturday .13u- May 2023.
The Commission has this afternoon held meetings with the leadership of the NDC to finalize modalities for the conduct of the elections.
Arrangements are being put in place to ensure a credible and transparent election,” the statement signed by the Chairperson Mrs. Jean Mensah said.
