The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate for Trobu, Dr. John Kofi Halm, has filed a Parliamentary Election Petition, contesting the validity of the recent parliamentary election held in the constituency.
Dr. Halm claims that the election held on December 7 was marred by up to 98 irregularities across 288 polling stations.
He argued that the process did not comply with Regulation 39 of the Public Elections Regulations, 2000 (C.I. 127), as well as its guiding principles.
As part of the petition, he is seeking an order to nullify the election results from the 98 affected polling stations and to mandate a rerun in those areas.
Furthermore, he has requested the court to prevent the Clerk of Parliament from swearing in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate, Gloria Owusu, who was declared the winner by the Electoral Commission.
