The Hon. Minority leader, Haruna Iddrisu has categorically stated that neither himself nor any of his members on the minority side have been served with a court summons after the walk to the electoral commission headquarters.

Mr Haruna during a press briefing in  Parliament said he only heard of a social media invitations by the Ghana Police service and as the law states, there should be a personal summons before he could proceed to court to respond to whatever being charged with.

“I have not been personally served as is the requirement of the law and many of my colleagues and therefore I should only be walking to court if there was personal service of that rate of summons but should presume without fear of contradiction that the Ghana Police Service is allowing itself to be used as a tool of manipulation,” he said.

“I repeatedly told you I am not a coward and I don’t intend ever to be coward by any machinations by any person including the Ghana Police Service. There are some confusions in their minds and they should seek to resolve it.”

He stated that there is confusion in the minds of the police which they need to seek to resolve, especially with the mentioning of Hon. Dr Zanetor Rawlings, Hon. Isaac Adongo and others whose names are being mentioned in the said police report are inaccuracies on the part of the police since these persons were not among those who went on the street that faithful day.

We don’t respond to social media invitations.

“Somebody somewhere rehearsed enemies that they are targeting for purpose of humiliation and to protect us as if we are not law-abiding citizens. They should resolve those confusions in their might and come back properly in accordance with law.

“But even if that is more remarkable and significant is that the criminals who so declared results and denied us of our mandate in Techiman are walking free. What they did is in breach of law. Nobody is persecuting these who shot and killed the three persons in Techiman yet members of parliaments presenting a harmless petition and not a demonstration that’s why the constitution in article 21 use the word procession and demonstration.”
