An Accra Fast Track High Court will on Thursday hear a fresh suit filed by former Supreme Court Judge, Justice Francis Yao Kpegah, challenging the status of New Patriotic Party�s Presidential Candidate in the 2012 elections, Nana Akufo-Addo, as a lawyer.
Justice Kpegah has accused Nana Akufo-Addo of impersonation, a claim which had been thrown out by an Accra Fast track High Court, some months ago.
Speaking to Citi News, lawyer for Nana Akufo-Addo, Frank Davis revealed that his team his filed an application urging the court to dismiss the suit.
�He [Kpegah] has instituted another action in the Fast Track Court and the matter is now constituted before Justice Ofori Atta,� he stated.
Lawyer Davies further stated, �We will be going to the Automated Fast Track and we have an application to have the action dismissed once again and it is coming on before Justice Ofori Atta at 9 am.�
�He has sued Nana Addo in another court on substantially the same release,� he added. An Accra Fast Track High Court had earlier dismissed an application filed by a former Supreme Court Judge, Justice Kpegah, accusing the NPP�s 2012 flagbearer, Nana Akufo-Addo of impersonation.
The court which was presided over by Justice Cecelia Sowah dismissed the case, describing it as frivolous.
