The Office of National Security is meeting the Chairmen and leaders of the two main political parties involved in the election petition case Ghana today.
Thursday’s meeting, according to sources within national security, is meant at security preparations ahead of the declaration of the last judgment by the Supreme Court on the election petition case trial.
The two parties – governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) – have been tangled in permitted opinions over the matter since the beginning of 2013.
The Election Petition Leaders – NPP’s 2012 Presidential candidate Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, his running buddy Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and national Chairman Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey – resorted to the Court to challenge what they say were extensive misconducts and violations that bedevilled the polls.
The defendants include President John Mahama, the Electoral Commission and the NDC.
The National Peace Council and other political society groups have started energetic peace movements to anticipate violence after the final judgment of Election Petition Case Ghana.
National Security has also put in place various measures and strategies to ensure peace prevail after the hearing.
