Samuel Apea-Danquah, an independent presidential candidate and leader of Yellow Ghana, has filed a lawsuit against the Electoral Commission (EC) following his disqualification from the upcoming presidential election. Apea-Danquah, among 11 candidates disqualified due to irregularities in their nomination forms, is challenging the EC’s decision in court.
On Thursday, October 10, Apea-Danquah filed a lawsuit seeking a court order of certiorari to overturn the EC’s ruling, arguing that his disqualification was unjust. He is also requesting a mandamus order to compel the EC to reinstate him as a valid candidate for the 2024 general elections.
Apea-Danquah is not alone in his legal battle. Other disqualified candidates, including Bernard Anbataayela Mornah of the People’s National Convention (PNC) and Kofi Asamoah-Siaw of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), have also filed lawsuits challenging their exclusion from the race.
The disqualification of these candidates has raised concerns about the fairness and transparency of the EC’s vetting process, with critics urging the Commission to ensure that all candidates are given a fair opportunity to meet the requirements.
