Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, has urged officials of the Electoral Commission (EC) to stop working in the interest of the New Patriotic Party.<\/b><\/p>\n

Mr Mahama said he expects them to work in accordance with the law that set them up<\/p>\n

\u201cI challenge the EC leadership to live up to its expected mandate and stop working in the interest of the ruling party,\u201d he posted on Facebook, June 3, 2024.<\/p>\n

The NDC flagbearer explained that, \u201cThe Electoral Commission\u2019s decision not to allow agents of political parties to observe the ongoing voter transfer exercise points to only one reason\u2014 the EC\u2019s avowed determination to aid the ruling NPP in stealing the outcome of the 2024 elections. But as I have continued to repeat, and did the past weekend in Tongo, this collusion between the EC and the NPP will not work. They will fail!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not surprised that the NPP and the EC quickly reversed a collective decision taken at an IPAC meeting last week to have political party agents present at the district offices for the transfer exercise.<\/p>\n

The NPP knows and internally admits that it will lose the 2024 presidential elections. We also know that, as a last resort, it seeks to deploy gerrymandering during this voter transfer period to improve its chances in the parliamentary elections in the erroneous belief that it may rely on that to affect its presidential votes. Again, they will fail because that strategy will not work,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n

According to Mahama, \u201cWe have in our possession a long list of constituencies in the Ashanti and Eastern Regions and selected places in Greater Accra and other regions where the NPP is seeking to transfer thousands of voters from their strongholds to offset the NDC\u2019s gains in constituencies we control.<\/p>\n

Ghanaians have already decided to vote Akufo-Addo and Bawumia out because of the unprecedented hardships they are faced with due to their economic mismanagement and deep-seated corruption.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am certain that no amount of collusion between the Electoral Commission and the NPP can rescue the NPP on December 07, 2024. We have instructed our party at all levels to continue to be present and observe the transfer process,\u201d he urged.<\/p>\n
