A flagbearer aspirant of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Kojo Bonsu has lent his voice to the calls to postpone the party’s upcoming presidential and parliamentary primaries scheduled for Saturday, May 13, 2023.

This comes after Dr Kwabena Duffour, another contestant for the flagbearer position made the call in a letter to the party on May 8 followed by a writ filed for an interlocutory injunction against the primaries.

Dr. Duffuor’s actions come in the wake of some discrepancies his team identified in the party’s voters register to be used for the exercise.

Siding with Dr. Duffour, Mr. Bonsu said that these anomalies have the propensity to affect the primaries.

Speaking on the evening of May 10, he said these identified issues must be fixed before the elections can be held.

“They have to postpone the date of the election and rectify it [the alleged anomalies in the album]”, he said on a Kumasi-based radio station.

He added that a failure to rectify these anomalies will attract more legal actions against the party.

“Let us do the right thing otherwise some people are going to court before the elections on Saturday,” Mr Bonsu indicated.

Meanwhile, Dr. Kwabena Duffour has filed for an interlocutory injunction at an Accra High Court against the upcoming primaries.

The flagbearer aspirant indicated in the writ that the party failed to provide the required photo album register five weeks ahead of the elections as stated in the party’s rules.

He, therefore, prayed the court to restrain the party from conducting the internal presidential elections until the discrepancies are rectified.
