An Accra Fast Track High Court will today hear an application seeking an interlocutory injunction on New Patriotic Party\u2019s (NPP) congress to elect a flagbearer on October 18.<\/p>\n
Two \u00a0members of the party, Rexford Agyei Frimpong and Oppong \u00a0Kyekyeku are seeking an order against the National Council to comply with the provision of the NPP constitution and fix a new date for the congress.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”pI0xdEDc0zSuaq5hfMzJwk7uviKbioft”]The suit came shortly after Alan Kyerematen and Addai Nimoh made calls for a review of the date for the elections to elect a flagbearer to lead the party in the 2016 general elections.<\/p>\n
The two say the October 18 date will not give them ample time to reach the over 140,000 delegates<\/strong><\/span><\/a> across the country.<\/p>\n Nana Akufo-Addo’s camp has in response to the call said that they don’t agree with the arguments from the two candidates because according to them, the situation is like a “90 minutes football game, we all have the same time to compete and win.”<\/p>\n
