An Accra High Court has upheld the Electoral Commission’s (EC’s) disqualification of the 2024 presidential candidate of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Bernard Mornah.
Mornah was among 11 disqualified presidential aspirants.
The EC explained that the presidential aspirants were disqualified from participating in the 7 December 2024, elections due to their failure to correct errors on their nomination forms.
EC Chairperson, Jean Mensa, explained, “Mr Bernard Mornah also had incomplete details of supporters. He also used registered voters in a particular district to support the nomination in other districts. His form also contained varying signatures for the same supporters and in some cases the same signature for different supporters. The committee was of the view that he be disqualified.”
However, Mornah agued that his disqualification was a breach of his rights, was illegal and failed to comply with due process requirements imposed by law and subsequently sued the EC.
