The Bono Regional chairman of the New Patriotic Party Kwame Baffoe popularly known as Abronye DC has rubbished the fact that the Electoral Commission of Ghana must appoint commissioners unknown in our political field to settle the neutrality of the noble institution.
According to the Bono regional Chairman, the main opposition party National Democratic Congress (NDC) sees nothing good in this Akuffo Addo’s government to be pampered. Despite the opposition party’s stands in terms of independence from the EC, the NPP firebrand sees Ndc as a detractor and confusing in terms of electoral processes in Ghana.
In an interview with Agya Wusu on Hot Morning Drive accused the president of avoiding him from serving as a commissioner in his last appointment to the electoral commission. Mr Kwame Baffoe argued that the Ndc in power led by John Mahama appointed a former Ndc chairman’s daughter to join the 7-member commission as president of the republic.
Where in the constitution can one site a breach of law mitigate the current appointment made by the president as he quizzed? The president of the republic Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo appointed three persons to the Electoral Commission on 21st March 2023 to make the 7-member commission complete for a definite job. The issue later turned out to be a bash as some of the appointees are perceived Npp members after a press conference by the Bono regional Ndc caucus.
