Supreme Court On Why James Gyakye Quayson Was Removed From Parliament (FULL JUDGEMENT)

The Supreme Court has released the full judgement in which it declared as unconstitutional the election of James Gyakye Quayson as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin North constituency in the Central Region.

This was after a seven-member panel of the Supreme Court ordered Parliament to expunge the name of James Gyakye Quayson from its records.

Presiding Judge, Justice Jones Dotse on Wednesday, May 17, ruled that the Electoral Commission (EC) acted unconstitutionally in allowing him to contest the 2020 parliamentary elections without proof of him renouncing his Canadian Citizenship.

This was after a case was filed by a resident of the constituency Michael Ankomah Nimfah.
