The bailiff of the Koforidua High Court, on Tuesday, February 25, served a substituted order compelling Frank Annoh-Dompreh, the MP for Nsawam Adoagyiri, the Electoral Commission and Clerk of Parliament to appear before the Court in Koforidua.
They are compelled to hear the matter of an election petition by the National Democratic Congress over what they term as a wrong declaration done in honour of Annoh-Dompreh by the EC.
The case, brought by National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate Fummey Selorm Philibert and his legal team, challenges the Electoral Commission’s declaration of Annoh-Dompreh as the MP-elect for Nsawam Adoagyiri.
The places served include: the High Court, NPP office, Electoral Commission, the police station, the Main Lorry Station, Fawe FM, and Selected information centres
The next court date is scheduled for March 14, 2025.
On February 21, the Koforidua High Court granted an order for substituted service, directing that a writ of summons be served on the 1st respondent, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, through various public channels.
The order was issued after court bailiffs were unable to serve the Member of Parliament for Nsawam Adoagyiri with the court summons.
Despite a previous directive for all possible means to be used, neither Annoh-Dompreh nor officials of the Electoral Commission at the Nsawam Adoagyiri Constituency appeared in court on January 23, 2025.
