The Presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress(NDC), will on Wednesday visit the family of those who lost their lives in the post-election violence that erupted in Techiman South during the general polls last week.
At least three people lost their lives in the chaos that broke out in the Techiman South constituency when opposition NDC officials protested the alleged manipulation of figures in favour of the NPP parliamentary candidate.
Ahead of the scheduled visit by the Flagbearer, the leadership of the NDC had visited the Electoral Commission (EC) office in the Techiman South Constituency in the Bono East Region days ago to demand copies of the pink sheets and collation sheet used to declare the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) candidate, Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah as the Member of Parliament-elect.
A Press release by the Regional Secretary of the NDC in the Bono East region in relation to Mahama’s scheduled visit said: “The Regional EC office and the Techiman South Constituency EC office will feel his presence…”
As part of his visit on Wednesday, John Mahama will also interact with the leadership of the party, sympathizers and party faithfuls within the region.
Below is the full statement
