Ten (10) out of the thirteen (13) disqualified
presidential candidates have resubmitted their nomination forms to the Electoral
Commission (EC).This means the other three presidential candidates
namely: Thomas N. Ward Brew [DPP], Richard Nixon Tetteh [UDSP] Kwabena Adjei
[RPD] are automatically disqualified since they were not able to meet the
Supreme Court's deadline of 5pm, Tuesday November 8.
The parties who
successfully submitted their forms include: Akua Donkor — GFP, Kofi akpaloo —
IPP, Nana Agyenim Boateng — UFP, Papa Kwesi Nduom — PPP, Hassan Ayariga — APC,
Edward Mahama — PNC, Nana Konadu — NDP, Henry Lartey —-GCPP, Asiedu Walker —
Independent Candidate, and Akwasi Addai Odike–UPP.
On Monday, the Supreme
Court (SC) ruled in favour of the PPP again; ordering the commission to allow
all 13 presidential aspirants to correct the errors on their forms.
Per
the Supreme Court ruling, the EC was to extend the nomination period to 5pm,
Tuesday November 8, 2016.
