The treason trial of #FixTheCountry convener, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, has been adjourned to May 20 this year.
The court was expected to decide on jurisdiction following a motion by Barker-Vormawor's lawyers challenging the constitutionality of the offence and requesting the Judge to refer the issue to the Supreme Court.
In anticipation of Monday's proceedings, Barker-Vormawor had rallied members of the #FixTheCountry movement to support him at court.
However, the trial did not take place as scheduled because the sitting judge is currently undergoing a training programme.
Barker-Vormawor was arrested and charged after a social media post that police investigators claimed contained a clear intent to subvert Ghana's constitution.
He was detained on February 11, 2022, at Kotoka International Airport upon his return from the United Kingdom.
The case has been adjourned to May 20, 2024, for a determination on the court's jurisdiction and further proceedings.
