Monrovia - Aggrieved partisans of the ruling Unity Party (UP) protesting against their disqualification from participating in party’s primary elections have announced an appeal to the Supreme Court to be heard during its March 2017 sitting. But they claimed their rights have been violated by the National Executive Committee and county convention committee of the UP. However, the legal counsel of the Unity Party (UP) Atty. The Civil Law Court “B” Judge Zlahn also stated that the petitioners’ allegation that their rights and entitlement as provided for under the Unity Party Convention has no basis in facts and law. But the legal counsel for the petitioners not satisfied by Judge Zlahn’s ruling also accepted and announced an appeal.
