This follows a plea by the NPP for the Law court to allow the party to settle the case amicably out of Court.

Kwesimintsim NPP primary to come off

Joe Mensah, who is aspiring to contest on the Party's ticket to Parliament in the constituency filed a suit against the party after he was disqualified from the race. He had wanted the court to cause NPP to justify the reason for his disqualification.

He consequently secured an interlocutory injunction on the primaries in the constituency until the substantive case was ruled by the court.

However, when the case was called today, Wednesday, April 20 at Sekondi High Court, the Party pleaded with the court to allow them for out of court settlement.

The Court granted the request but asked the two parties to come back to brief the court on any progress that would be made on May, 3, 2016.

This sudden turn of event has raised the hopes of supporters and sympathizers of the party that, the much expected primaries between the incumbent Joe Badu Ansah and Joe Mensah will take place.
