An Electoral Commission (EC) member, Dr Peter Appiahene, has been dragged to the Supreme Court by South Dayi MP Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor over his alleged affiliation with the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP).
The legislator contends that under Ghana’s constitution, a person is not qualified to be an EC member if that person is a “known sympathiser, a member or openly affiliates or identified with a registered political party in Ghana”.
President Akufo – Addo in March this year swore in three new members of the electoral management body including Dr Appiahene.
