JUDGEMENT<o:p></o:p>

</div>ANIN&nbsp; YEBOAH JSC:-<o:p></o:p>The plaintiff/Applicant
herein has moved this court on notice for leave to examine the 3rd
Defendant/Respondent herein pursuant to the order of this court dated the 19th
October 2016. <o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>To fully appreciate the
basis for this ruling I have to fully set out the facts leading to this
application which warranted this action against the three defendants for
several reliefs which are not necessary to be repeated in this ruling for sake
of brevity. The action was brought under Article 2 of the 1992 Constitution
which obviously invoked our original jurisdiction for the interpretation and
enforcement of constitutional provisions, precisely Article 181 thereof. <o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>On or about 14/06/2013,
this court unanimously granted several reliefs sought on the writ. The plaintiff/Applicant
herein was dissatisfied with parts of the judgment and therefore applied for
review of the judgment of the ordinary bench above referred to. This court on
29/07/2014 reviewed its decision of the ordinary bench by a unanimous decision by
a panel of eleven Justices. It would be worthwhile to fully state the orders
made by this Court which has culminated in this application.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p>BY COURT: <o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>“By
unanimous decision of this court, the application for review succeeds and is
hereby granted. Consequently, the applicant is entitled to have the decision of
the ordinary bench reviewed in the following terms: <o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p><</main>
