Mop-Up Registration: NDC Takes EC To Court

The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has sued the Electoral Commission for its intended mop-up registration scheduled for October 1, 2020.

The party described the exercise as a breach of the laws regarding registration exercises and therefore prayed the court to place an injunction on it.

“Counsel for and on behalf of the plaintiff/applicant herein praying for an order of interlocutory injunction to restrain the defendants/respondents herein, their assigns, agents, privies and any persons acting upon their instructions or authorized by them or acting in furtherance of the same objective as theirs from taking steps to register voters on 1st October, 2020 or any date thereafter for any public election or from doing anything to overreach this court in the fair determination of the instant suit, pending the determination of this suit, on the grounds contained in the accompanying supporting affidavit,” the suit said.
