The High Court in Sefwi Wiawso has issued an order to stop the New Patriotic Party's constituency executive election. This affects the Sefwi Wiawso Constituency.
The court's decision was made on Friday, July 10, 2026. It came after a legal case was brought before it.
Seven plaintiffs have filed a lawsuit. They are seeking an interlocutory injunction to prevent the election from taking place.
The court has agreed to hear the application for an injunction. Until a decision is made, the election is suspended.
This legal action means party members in the constituency will have to wait to elect their new executives. The specific reasons for the lawsuit were not immediately detailed.
The Judicial Service confirmed the court order. The NPP is therefore prohibited from holding the election for now.
Further court proceedings will determine the future of the election. More details are expected as the case progresses.
