Returnee and defeated chairman-aspirant of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Charles Wereko-Brobbey has threatened to drag the Party to court if its National Executive does not rescind its decision by the end of today May 31st, to hold a national congress to elect a presidential candidate on August 7, 2010.According to Dr. Wereko-Brobbey, who is also the former Chief Executive of the defunct Ghana @50 Secretariat, the conduct and processes leading to setting the date for the congress were unlawful and inconsistent with the provisions of the NPP Constitution.In a legally-worded letter to the NPP Chairman, Jake Otanka Obetsebi-Lamptey, copy of which is available to Daily Guide, the former Chief Executive of Volta River Authority (VRA) said he was particularly disturbed about “the patent disregard of the constitutional provisions in respect of the processes to select the party’s presidential candidate for the 2012 General Election.“My fear is that if we do not take immediate and urgent steps to reverse and correct the unlawful actions, our march to victory in 2012 could be check-mated by future legal actions to challenge the legitimacy of our presidential candidate to contest the General Elections,” said Dr. Wereko-Brobbey, who had given indications of contesting the party’s flagbearership. Even though the defeated NPP chairman aspirant could not file at the close of nominations, he appeared to be fighting some kind of proxy war.
