A National Organizer aspirant of the National Democratic Congress(NDC), Emmanuel Didiyie Aboagye has withdrawn a suit he filed against the party.
The plaintiff was seeking to restrain the party from going ahead with its much anticipated congress on Saturday.
Didiyie filed a law suit, after the General Secretary of the party, Johnson Asiedu Nketsia announced a decision by the party’s Electoral Committee to drop him from the race.
Citi FM’s Fred Djabanor who was at the court said “the party has upheld the decision by Didiyie to withdraw the case.”
According to him, Didiyie’s decision to withdraw the case was “based on the love of the party” and his desire to “ensure unity within the party.”
Djabanor said “no costs were awarded to the Didiyie.”
Didiyie’s withdrawal means that the party can go ahead with its much anticipated congress slated for December 20, 2014.
The Deputy General Secretary of the party , George Lawson had stated that Affraim Plains North legislator was disqualified because he failed to meet the requirements of the vetting committee.
He had called for sanctions against the Didiyie for suing the party.
The party has in the past battled with a number of court injunctions which barred it from holding its constituency elections at the said date.
