Two of the candidates in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Korley Klottey constituency Parliamentary primaries, Philip Addison and Nii Adjei Tawiah, have given the party’s National Executive Council (NEC), a seven day ultimatum to review their joint petition calling for the annulment and re-run of the elections.
The two have threatened to go to court if the NEC does not review the petition.
The campaign manager for Philip Addison, Norman Nyametey Tetteh, told Citi News that the two candidates know that the NEC has not met to deliberate and have given the committee enough time to do so.
“We are aware that the National Executive Committee has not met, and we still will have to give them enough time to meet to deliberate on the issue.”
He also said that the only way that the issue could be resolved is for the results of the primaries to be nullified.
“This is the only way that the issue will be resolved. Philip Addison and Adjei Tawiah boycotted the election based on the way things were being organised, which they felt was not the right way. We will follow the processes that the party has put down for situations like this,” he said.
