Injunction against funeral of late Ga Manye set aside, judge says it was granted in error

An Accra High Court has set aside an interim injunction granted to seven plaintiffs who had sought to stop the final rights of the late Ga Manye.

Justice Patrick Baayeh, the High Court judge who granted the order of interim injunction, subsequently said the order was an error.

With this new court ruling, the final funeral rites of the late Ga Manye Naa Dedei Omaedru III will be held as planned by the Ga Traditional Council.

The court on Thursday, October 26 set aside the ruling following the filing of an affidavit opposing the earlier decision.

Justice Baayeh ruled: “I am of the view that the Order of Interim Injunction granted on October 25, 2023, was made in error. The applicants failed to give the court the true state of affairs.”

“In fairness to the parties, therefore, the Order of Interim Injunction granted on October 25, 2023, is hereby set aside. Any party desirous of proceeding may come on notice to the other party for a proper evaluation of the evidence from both sides.”
