Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Founding President of IMANI Africa, Franklin Cudjoe has told the Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana to ensure it gets the conduct of the 2024 general elections right.<\/b><\/p>\n

He told the Commission to prevent the technical challenges that occurred in the recently-held District Level elections from being repeated in the 2024 elections.<\/p>\n

The EC had to reschedule the assembly elections in some electoral areas due to technical challenges.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Franklin Cudjoe said \u201cGhana must ensure our Electoral Commission gets it right without the haphazard and in some instances, as in the infamous case of SALL, complete high-handed and near banditry tactics carefully deployed 24 hours to the vote in alienating a whole lot of Ghanaians in the vote without any official remedy, nearly four years on.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe recent bungling of district level elections by the EC must not be repeated in 2024.\u201d<\/p>\n

Below is his full statement…<\/p>\n

There will be many national elections across the globe in 2024.<\/p>\n

Ghana must ensure our Electoral Commission gets it right without the haphazard and in some instances, as in the infamous case of SALL, complete high-handed and near banditry tactics carefully deployed 24 hours to the vote in alienating a whole lot of Ghanaians in the vote without any official remedy, nearly four years on.<\/p>\n

The recent bungling of district level elections by the EC must not be repeated in 2024.<\/p>\n

I still think Ghana\u2019s EC is complicit in the needless deaths of 7 Ghanaian voters in 2020. Even sadder is the complete disregard by the security agencies, national security ministry and the President on this grave matter.<\/p>\n

And then across the continent there are warming up exercises by some ECs to mess up. Recent elections in Sierra Leone and the ongoing elections in DR Congo come to mind. In DR Congo, Aljazeera reports that,\u201d<\/p>\n

Independent observers have raised concerns about the vote, with the United States-based Carter Center describing \u201cserious irregularities\u201d at 21 out of 109 polling stations it visited and noting \u201ca lack of confidence in the process\u201d.<\/p>\n

A few years ago, the Electoral Commission in Uganda suspended presidential campaigns in Kampala & 10 other districts citing covid-19 fears. But the real reason was that Bobi Wine, the opposition leader was more popular in those areas than incumbent Yoweri Museveni.<\/p>\n

The Electoral Commission and Constitutional Court in the Central African Republic decided to go ahead with presidential elections in spite of the fact that two-thirds of the dismembered country was controlled by rebels.<\/p>\n

The Electoral Commission and Constitutional Court in The Ivory Coast shepherded a disgraceful third-term for President Ouattara.<\/p>\n

Well, may be we should be grateful for our error-ridden Electoral Commission in Ghana?. Y3n fa omu saa? NOT IN DECEMBER 2024!<\/p>\n
