According to Communications Director of the party, Kadri Abdul Rauf Issifu, Onzy Nkrumah’s filing was not accepted because he could not comply with set rules.

“The rule that the party set is that for you to file, you must either bring your money in cash or through Banker’s Draft. Unfortunately, he presented a cheque. The time that he presented the cheque was also close to [end] of nominations”, he explained.
