The Electoral Commission (EC) has rejected allegations that it is manipulating the voter register to benefit a particular political party.
This follows the National Democratic Congress (NDC) alleging that the EC has bloated the provisional voter’s register of the Ho Central Constituency in the Volta Region with over 4,000 names.
The Ho Central NDC IT and Election Director, Dr Collins Nunyonameh, explained that the alleged illegal act was committed under the guise of transferring votes.
The Deputy Chairman of EC in charge of Corporate Services, Dr Bossman Asare, addressed these claims, stating that they are baseless and should be disregarded by the public.
According to him, Ghana’s electoral process is one of the most transparent and inclusive on the continent, with all procedures—from voter registration to the declaration of results—being open to scrutiny by political parties and citizens alike.
Dr. Asare dismissed suggestions that the success and peace of the upcoming 2024 elections rest solely on the EC Chairperson, urging the public to ignore such statements, even if made by prominent individuals.
