NPP will proceed to court if the evidence is strong - Arthur K

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is expected in court this week as the 21 day period it has to challenge the results of the recently held elections draws closer.

The party says it is taking time to gather credible evidence of vote rigging against the Electoral Commission.

A leading member, Dr. Arthur Kennedy says even though he is not privy to the evidence gathered so far, his party leaders are currently reviewing the evidence.

In an interview with XYZ News, the NPP stalwart said the party will proceed to court once the evidence is convincing.

“In my judgment if after reviewing the evidence, which the party is doing now, we come to the conclusion that the evidence is substantive enough so that it will either overturn the election or lead to a re-vote then we should go to court,” he said.

Dr. Arthur Kennedy however indicated that the party is not go to court if the evidence is weak.
