NDC to File a Restraining Order to Prevent Swearing-In of Three NPP MPs-Elect

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) plans to file a restraining order to prevent the swearing-in of three newly elected Members of Parliament from the New Patriotic Party (NPP). This legal action arises from allegations that these MPs were not duly elected, as they reportedly engaged in electoral malpractice during the recent elections. The NDC argues that allowing them to take their oaths would undermine the integrity of the parliamentary process.

The party's decision follows a series of complaints and protests regarding the conduct of the elections in certain constituencies. NDC officials believe that addressing these grievances through legal channels is essential to uphold democratic principles and ensure fair representation in Parliament. They assert that any irregularities must be thoroughly investigated before new MPs are sworn in.

As tensions rise between the two major political parties, this move by the NDC highlights ongoing disputes over election results and governance in Ghana. The outcome of this legal challenge could have significant implications for both parties and the overall political landscape in the country.
