JUDGMENT<o:p></o:p>

</div>This
is the era of the twenty-first Century, where political governance is
characterized by rule of the people by the people, termed democratically
elected government, where the people agree to be bound by a fundamental law
written or unwritten which has the embodiment of all rules and laws which
regulate the structure of the principal organs of government, their
relationship with each other and with the people governed. The parties herein
are members of an association which has a constitution, an embodiment of their
rules and laws agreed and accepted to bind the
members of the Greater Accra Spare parts Dealers Association hereinafter
known as GASSDA.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Civilization
is gradually rejecting coups de etat with
its attendant self- imposed leadership&nbsp; as an alternative
to democratic government throughout the world, and people
are subscribing to leadership by their elected agents under a free
electoral system as the only form of appointment to leadership and it is therefore no wonder that the
constitutionally elected plaintiffs herein, after the defendants have used unaccepted means to throw them out of
power and imposed themselves as new leaders of the association instituted this action claiming the
following reliefs;<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
An order of perpetual injunction restraining
the defendants from holding themselves out as leaders of GASSDA until such a
time that they submit themselves to elections and get elected into office<o:p></o:p>b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
An order that defendants give vacant
possession of the Association’s office and hand over the keys thereto to the
council of elders of GASSDA.<o:p></o:p>c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
An order compelling the defendants to
submit themselves to auditing<o:p></o:p>d)
