The Electoral Commission has denied claims by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) that the Commission pledged to make available the revised Provisional Voters Register (PVR) within a week after the televised Special meeting with the Political parties and other Civil Society Organisations, on October 1, 2024.
The Commission clarified that there is no point in the statement of the Chairperson of the Commission, Madam Jean Mensa, that suggests that the EC pledged to make the Provisional Voters Register within a week after the meeting.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, October 8, the Electoral Commission said it had taken note “of a statement by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to the effect that the EC promised to make the revised Provisional Voters Register (PVR) available to the Political Parties within a week of the IPAC meeting as follows: the Functional Executive Committee of the NDC has deliberated and decided to accept the EC’s promise to release to political parties, the corrected/updated version of the 2024 Provisional Voters Register for scrutiny within one week.”
“For the records, the Chairperson of the EC indicated during the televised IPAC meeting that the Commission would provide the Political Parties with the revised PVR and upload it online within two (2) weeks or earlier.
“Nowhere in her statement did the Chairperson indicate that the revised PVR would be made available within a week,” the EC said
