The Deputy General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Haruna Mohammed, says he is confident there will be no rerun of the Kpandai parliamentary election as the Supreme Court prepares to deliver its ruling on the matter.
This comes after the Supreme Court deferred its ruling on the matter to January 28.
Speaking on The Pulse programme on Joy News, Mr Mohammed clarified that the court has not postponed proceedings but has only adjourned sittings to allow for a ruling to be delivered on January 28.
“In fact, there is no postponement of sitting. There is an adjournment of sitting for a ruling to be made on the 28th, based on the arguments of the lawyers for the various respondents and applicants in this particular matter,” he said.
Mr Mohammed stated that the NPP is confident in the strength of its case and will continue to respect the judicial process.
“We have set our case, and we do know that the NPP always stays faithful to the law, and we are not going to make a lot of noise out there,” he added.
According to the NPP Deputy General Secretary, the party is convinced that no further election will take place in the Kpandai constituency, insisting that the only parliamentary election due there will be in 2028.
“We know there won’t be any elections in Kpandai, and that is why we went to court. The only election that will happen in Kpandai is the 2028 election,” he said.
Mr Mohammed dismissed claims and expectations of a rerun, urging those anticipating another election to wait for the court’s decision.
“So if anybody is daydreaming of having elections in Kpandai, they should continue with that particular process, but we await the decision of the Supreme Court on the 28th of January, 2026,” he added.
