Resident of SALL did not vote in Parliamentary elections
Eligible voters within the newly created Guan district, namely, Santrokofi, Akpafu, Likpe, and Lolobi were denied participation in 2020 Parliamentary elections over boundary issues which arose from the creation of the six new regions.
The development, the IMANI boss has described as unacceptable and warned the EC to conduct an election for them by end of March or face her removal from office.
The group led by renowned lawyer, Tsatui Tsikata even hauled the new Member of Parliament for the Hohoe, Constituency, Mr Peter Amewu before a High Court over the development, however, he was cleared to be sworn in as MP with reasons that he could not be blamed for EC’s wrong.
