Withdrawal of Case Against Me Not Surprising – Zanetor

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate for Klottey Korle, Zanetor Rawlings has said incumbent MP for the area, Nii Armah Ashitey’s withdrawal of case against her comes as no surprise.
According to her lawyer, Edudzi Tamakloe, he saw the discontinuance of the case coming as he knew Mr Ashitey’s legal team will hit a snag due to the manner in which they were handling the matter in court.
Nii Armah Ashitey, former Greater Accra Regional minister, went to court challenging the eligibility of Dr. Zanetor as the NDC nominee for the upcoming parliamentary polls but threw in the towel, withdrawing his lawsuit against his contender on Wednesday.
Nii Armah Ashitey has been in court since last year challenging the process and the eligibility of the winner of the NDC primary in the area.
The decision to stop the legal battles against Rawlings comes on the back of recent losses he suffered at the Supreme Court over aspects of his case in court.
But speaking to TV3 News, lawyer Edudzi Tamakloe, stated that Nii Armah’s latest action is a welcome news to both the legal and campaign team of Zanetor Rawlings, as their focus will now be fully focused on working to win the upcoming election.
“At all times Zanetor is ready to cooperate with anybody in the constituency to work for the NDC ensure that the party emerges victorious during the polls. At the end of the day the seat will not belong Zanetor but will be in the name of the NDC.”
