Election 2024: Injunction against Cynthia Morrison’s candidacy lifted

A District Magistrate Court in Agona Swedru has overturned an injunction restraining Cynthia Morrison from contesting as an independent parliamentary candidate for Agona West Constituency.

The former Gender Minister and incumbent Member of Parliament for the area, switched to an independent bid after alleging unfair treatment by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) during internal primaries.

The injunction stemmed from Emmanuel Addison’s challenge to Cynthia Morrison’s eligibility, citing her residency in Agona East.

Cynthia Morrison’s lawyers, led by Ishmael Kofi Turkson, have filed a motion to transfer the case to the High Court.
