At the High Court, Ho, on 7th February 2024, Justice Owoahene Acheampong refused to allow the lawyer for the Petitioners to withdraw his application for judgment on admissions which had been earlier argued before the belated application by the 2nd Respondent to the Petition, Hon. Peter Amewu to file an Answer to the Election Petition out of time. Justice Acheampong indicated that he was not “ashamed to state that I know of no law or rule that allows me to allow an applicant to withdraw an application that has been moved ….”. He did not discuss the cases Counsel for the Petitioners, Mr. Tsatsu Tsikata, had cited before the court but stated that, according to Counsel, the cases were by way of analogy.
