The Electoral Commission (EC) has expressed its willingness to engage with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) regarding their concerns after formally acknowledging receipt of the petition submitted following the ‘Enough is enough’ demonstration on Tuesday.
The NDC has been calling for a forensic audit of the electoral roll ahead of the December 7 elections, raising concerns about the credibility of the voters’ register. In a statement signed by the Deputy Chairman of Operations, Samuel Tettey, the EC assured the public and the NDC that it is committed to delivering a credible and robust final voters’ register. “The process of producing the Final Register is in its early stages,” the statement said. He added that the Commission is aware of the critical importance of the voters’ register in ensuring fair and transparent elections. The EC expressed its willingness to engage with the NDC on their concerns.
