The Court of Appeal has opened the way for a bye-election in the Mion Constituency which was ‘won’ by the NDC in election 2004 and put Alhassan Ahmed Yakubu in Parliament.
The NPP “losing” NPP candidate Mahama Negin Kwasi Samuel has been fighting the results ever since they were declared by the Electoral Commission. With the Court of Appeal upholding a lower court’s earlier decision in favour of the NPP candidate, it is now quite certain that the Electoral Commission would have to conduct a bye-election in the constituency.
