After close to three months of sitting, Ghana's Supreme Court today, March 4 gave its final verdict on the 2020 election petition hearing.
With 5 days of pre-trial hearings and 12 sittings, today's exercise was the 18th and 63 days since the petition was filed on December 30, 2020.
The 2020 NDC Presidential Candidate, former President John Dramani Mahama dragged the Electoral Commission and President Akufo-Addo to court, challenging the validity of the December 7 election results.
He has been praying the court to nullify the declaration and to cause a re-run between himself and President Akufo-Addo.
Currently, all the lawyers of the parties in the case have filed their closing address.
