The Accra High Court has refused requests to compel President Akufo-Addo to receive the Anti-LGBTQ+ bill.
The court dismissed the mandamus application filed by Member of Parliament for South Dayi, Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor seeking among others to compel President Akufo-Addo to receive the bill.
Lawyers for the Attorney-General represented by Chief State Attorney Sylvia Adeso told the High Court which was presided over by Justice Ellen Mireku that, it had no jurisdiction to grant the application being filed by Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor.
The judge however disagreed but went ahead to dismiss the mandamus application using her discretionary powers.
She stated that two suits filed by private citizens Prof Amanda Odoi and Richard Dela Sky had direct implications into the mandamus application and hence declined the reliefs being sought by the South Dayi member of Parliament.
