A High Court has rejected a legal challenge against a directive from the National Democratic Congress NDC. The NDC had ordered some government appointees to resign from their posts.
The court ruled that the NDC has the right to set such conditions for its members. The lawsuit sought to prevent the party from enforcing this resignation rule.
The NDC's directive requires appointees to leave their government jobs within a six month period. This decision affects individuals holding positions within the government who are also party members.
Details of the specific positions or the number of individuals affected were not immediately clear from court filings. The court's dismissal means the NDC's directive will stand.
The legal action was brought by individuals seeking to challenge the party's internal rules. The court did not provide a detailed reason for its dismissal in the initial report.
