The Electoral Commission (EC) has issued a directive to its Regional Directors, instructing them to inform District Directors that agents of political parties will not be allowed to observe the ongoing transfer of votes. This directive will take effect on Monday, June 3.
In a memo obtained by AhotorOnline.com, the EC stated that this decision is a response to several clashes that have occurred at its district offices during the vote transfer process.
Fred Forson, the spokesperson for the Aggrieved Customers of Menzgold, reacted strongly to the EC’s directive, urging political parties to challenge the decision. He believes this move could be an attempt to rig the upcoming 2024 elections.
During an appearance on Ahotor FM’s morning show ‘Adekyee Mu Nsem’ with host Citizen Kofi Owusu, Mr. Forson called on the EC to work diligently to ensure peace is maintained before, during, and after the December elections.
