Supreme Court unanimously affirms Akufo-Addo as president
The Supreme Court per a unanimous decision
delivered Thursday has affirmed Nana Addo Dankwa
Akufo-Addo as a validly elected President of
Ghana.
The court said the petitioner, Mr John Dramani
Mahama did not demonstrate in any way how the
alleged errors made by the Electoral Commission
affected the declaration of the presidential
election results by the chairperson of the EC, Mrs
Jean Adukwei Mensa.



"The petitioner has not produced any evidence to
re-butt the presumption created by the publication
of the C.I. 135", for which the court said the
petitioner wanted a re-run to be made.

In effect, the Supreme Court said there is no
reason to order a re-run, as one of the reliefs by
the petitioner and dismiss the petition as having
no merit.
