The Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) elections, slated for today, Tuesday, August 8, 2023, have been placed on an interlocutory injunction by an Accra High Court.
The elections, which were to be conducted by the Electoral Commission of Ghana, have now been put on hold pending the resolution of the legal case.
The legal action was initiated by Doe Kwablah Seyenam Nyamadi and Frederick Van Dyk, both active members of MUSIGA and plaintiffs in the case.
In their petition, they request an interlocutory injunction to halt the election process, naming MUSIGA as the first defendant, Bice Osei Kuffour (known as Obour) as the second defendant, and the Electoral Commission as the third defendant that the first and second defendants and their executives have failed to render proper accounts.
The elections will be on hold pending the final determination of the case by the court with the cloud of uncertainty hanging over the MUSIGA elections, the future leadership and direction of the union remain void.
