Mrs. Mensa said with the introduction of biometric machines, the indelible ink is no longer needed.<\/p>\n<p>Indelible ink is a semi-permanent ink or dye that is applied to the forefinger (usually) of voters during elections in order to prevent electoral fraud such as double voting.<\/p>\n<p>She explained at a media briefing on Monday, December 18 that the biometric identification system flags anyone who attempts multiple voting; hence, anyone verified after voting cannot vote again.<\/p>\n<p>However, speaking on Ghana Tonight with Alfred Ocansey on January 8, Prof. Asare said the EC\u2019s Chairperson must hasten slowly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am one of those people who don\u2019t believe that big changes should be implemented all of a sudden. If you believe you have a technology that makes the use of indelible ink obsolete, fine. Do it on pilot basis. Take a few polling stations and test to see whether indeed, it works so that people have confidence in what you are going to do. You cannot just announce that for the first time, am no longer going to use indelible ink. People will raise questions, because technology does not always work,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Prof Asare called on Mrs Jean Mensa to build consensus on the policy to ensure smooth implementation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is why the onus is on the Electoral Commission to bring the people along through the use of pilot testing. For instance, if this district level elections had not failed so miserably, they could have tried this and report to the people, the results of their pilot and that would build people\u2019s confidence. So that going into 2024, you can extend the number of centres that do that, and by 2028 most people will be comfortable and you can implement it full scale in 2028. But we are too quick to introduce big changes and try to implement them. That will give you problems,\u201d he cautioned.<\/p>\n<p>It would be recalled that other stakeholders, including the National Democratic Congress (NDC), have resisted the dicision to stop using indelible ink to identify electorates who have voted.<\/p>\n<p>National Chairman of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah said the discontinuation will lead to nefarious activities that will compromise the integrity of the elections.<\/p>\n<p>Discontinuation of use of indelible ink will compromise the election results \u2013 NDC<\/p>\n<p>Addressing a press conference in Accra on Monday January 8, he said \u201cThe discontinuation of the use of indelible ink at this stage will open the flood gate for nefarious activities that will compromise the integrity of our elections. Have we as Ghanaians said we will not pay for the indelible ink?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe EC must not make life easy for criminals to exploit our electoral process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr Asiedu Nketiah is not te only one calling on the Commission to abort this plan.<\/p>\n<p>The Majority Leader Osei-Kyei-Mensah Bonsu also told the EC to have a second look at its decision<b>.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>He also told the Commission not to close polls at 3 PM as it is proposing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we are sure that we will start early and then create many more polling stations such that by 2 PM, 90 or 95 percent have voted, why not? But we should not create a situation where instead of cleaning up the system we rather end up creating chaos,\u201d he told in an interview.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you want to end at 3PM, instead of starting at 7AM and beginning at 8AM, you create chaos,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
