Ghana’s former High Commissioner to India, His Excellency Sam Pee Yalley has alleged on Ahotor 92.3 FM’s breakfast show, Adekyi Mu Nsem that the country’s Electoral Commission is making clandestine moves to rig the impending general elections for their paymasters.
Ghana is on the brink of surging into a political instability if the EC is allowed to carry out with its intended objectives.
Ambassador Sam Pee Yalley
Ambassador Yalley bemoaned that the EC’s position on the new voters register is worrying and unproductive towards the quest to protect the sanctity of the sovereign will of the good people of Ghana.
He told the moderator Citzen Kofi Owusu Citizen that the Commission is scheming to rig the elections due to the stern position of the chairperson of the Commission , Jean Mensah.
The Founder for the NDC Professional Forum noted that the government is manipulating the EC to swing the process of the December polls in their favor without factoring the detrimental effects on the nation.
The former High Commissioner to India wondered how the EC is insisting against all odds to use the National Identification Card as prove of eligibility for citizens during the compilation of the new register for the elections.
He said Ghana is on the brink of surging into a political instability if the EC is allowed to carry out with its intended objectives.
Mr Yalley concurred with the stance of Dr Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, the NDC chairman who was also on the show, who registered his displeasure over the EC’s move to compile a new voters register amid resentment by Civil Society Organisations (CSO)s and opposition parties such the NDC, PNC, APC as well as UFP.
The NDC boycotted the last IPAC meetings between the EC and political stakeholders to find a convergence over the incessant disagreements regarding the new voters register.
