The flagbearer of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Bernard Mornah, plans to appeal to the Supreme Court following the High Court’s recent dismissal of his case against the Electoral Commission (EC).
Mornah had sought to overturn the EC’s decision, which disqualified him and ten other candidates from running in the 2024 presidential election.
Addressing the media on Monday, October 21, Mornah argued that the EC’s decision was flawed, reiterating his belief that his claims are valid. He stressed the importance of seeking a review from a higher court to ensure a fair outcome.
Mornah added that his legal team has been notified of his intentions to proceed with the appeal, aiming for further interpretation from the Supreme Court on the issue.
“The EC made mistakes on their own forms and we are not allowed to make mistakes. The judge did not look at that and that defies ordinary thinking. What is the error that they are talking about? Is it a data entry error that they are talking about, is it an error of composition and how come those errors were not brought to court?
“The judge did not look at the issues that were brought before it and I have already instructed my lawyers that this case is not ending here and we will go to the Supreme Court and my lawyers say that they will quickly study the case.”
