Election 2024: Court bars NPP’s Cynthia Morrison from going independent

Cynthia Morrison, Gender and Social Protection Minister

A District Magistrate Court at Agona Swedru in the Central Region has issued an injunction against Cynthia Morrison's candidacy as an independent parliamentary candidate for Agona West Constituency in the Central Region.

The injunction prevents her from presenting herself as a candidate until the court fully resolves an ongoing legal case.

Cynthia Morrison, who previously won the Agona West parliamentary seat for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in 2016 and 2020, decided to run independently after alleging that her party treated her unfairly during the internal primary for the 2024 election.

She announced her decision to run as an independent candidate about three months ago, following her loss in the NPP’s parliamentary primary.
