We’re Unable To Supervise Your Election Until Legal Matters Are Resolved EC To NDC

The Electoral Commission (EC) says it will not be able to supervise the conduct of the  National Democratic Congress (NDC)  Presidential and Parliamentary primaries slated for Saturday, 13^th  May 2023 until the determination of a suit filed by one of the Presidential aspirants, Dr Kwabena Duffour.

The EC  explained that one of the presidential aspirants, Dr Kwabena Duffour had served it with an Application for Interlocutory Injunction “seeking to restrain the Electoral Commission from supervising the conduct of the Presidential and Parliamentary Primaries” and that it (EC)  will be unable to supervise Saturday’s election.

In a letter addressed to the General Secretary of the NDC, Fifi Kwetey, the EC  said, “Further to our meeting this afternoon on the above-mentioned subject, we write to formally inform you that having been served with an Application For Interlocutory Injunction seeking to restrain the Electoral Commission from supervising the conduct of the Presidential and Parliamentary Primaries of the National Democratic Congress, the Commission will not be able to supervise the conduct of the said Elections slated for Saturday, 13^th  May 2023 until after the determination of the matter.”

Dr Kwabena Duffour has argued that the photo album register issued by the party is incomplete and inaccurate hence the court action.

He further wants the party to be ordered to prepare and deliver a complete and accurate Photo Album Register to all the presidential aspirants at least five weeks ahead of the elections to enable the aspirants to carry out the needed verification of the Photo Album Register.
