Election: (CSD-Ghana) Backs The NDC’s “Enough is Enough” Protest In Demand For A Credible Voters’Register

Published from Blogger Prime Android App


The CSD-Ghana believes strongly that the foundation of any free and fair election is a credible register and as such, any effort towards having a credible Voters’ Register must be supported by all democracy lovers.

The Electoral Commission has admitted to many errors in the Electoral Roll, as pointed out by the NDC, but has failed to allow for an independent forensic audit into the same.
The EC, for example, has admitted that there were illegal vote transfers in Sagnerigu, Pusiga and Tamale South by an Electoral Commission Official in Tamale South.

According to the EC, these illegal transfers went through because there was no “liveness check” mechanism in place to prevent such situations. 

The NDC says the situation is widespread so there must be an audit.
This is a fair and reasonable call to make, but the EC has remained intransigent.
CSD-Ghana stands ready to fully participate in this protest and asks other democracy lovers to join us to mount enough pressure on the Electoral Commission to find reason in this call to protect our fledgling democracy.
