The EC feels the NDC has taken a stand to sabotage their agenda, which is not the case. We are simply interested in ensuring that elections are conducted fairly and accurately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The lawyer further expressed concern over what he perceives as partisan appointments by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the NPP within key institutions such as the Judiciary and the Electoral Commission.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting the implications of such appointments, Yeboah-Korankye pointed out the potential bias in legal proceedings which may come in very important as the 2024 general elections approach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou will go to a State Agency and realize the government in power has put into position people of his party colours belonging to his party. This is a stock-in-trade benchmark for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. He is the only leader in history that I know who has appointed people with his political colours to occupy positions they shouldn\u2019t in the Judicial Service,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a lawyer, when I get a case and I realize that the Judge is an NPP person, by default, I know the verdict shall not go in my favour,\u201d he stated.<\/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.
