NPP returns to court over injunction suit

 An Accra Fast Track high Court will in the next couple of hours hear an application in which two members of the opposition New Patriotic party ( NPP)  are seeking an interlocutory injunction on the party’s October 18 congress. Two members of the party, Rexford Agyei Frimpong and Oppong  Kyekyeku sought an order against the National Council to comply with the provision of the NPP constitution and fix a new date for the congress since the October 18 date will not favour Alan Kyerematen and Addai Nimoh but an Accra Fast Track High Court adjourned the case indefinitely. The court application follows calls from flagbearer aspirants, Alan Kyerematen and Addai Nimoh that the party’s leadership should reconsider the date for the congress. The two say the October 18 date will not give them ample time to reach the over 140,000 delegates across the country. The last time they were in court, counsel for the plaintiffs pleaded for more time to study the response from the party against their suit. Today’s court case will bring finality to what is likely to offset the October 18 congress.
