NPP rejects NDC's voters register discrepancy claims, calls it baseless

Accra, Ghana - The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has rejected allegations of discrepancies in the voters register made by the National Democratic Congress (NDC). General Secretary Justin Frimpong Kodua described the claims as unfounded and lacking evidence.

Speaking at the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting on October 1, 2024, Kodua challenged the NDC to present their claims to the Electoral Commission for scrutiny.

"Not long ago, certain people staged a demonstration against the Electoral Commission based on what they perceived to be discrepancies in an attempt to rig the election for the New Patriotic Party (NPP)," he stated.

"Despite several calls from key stakeholders, including ourselves, asking the NDC to raise legitimate concerns, we even suggested they hold a press conference and invite all of us to review these allegations. Today, as we speak, the NDC is yet to provide the so-called allegations and discrepancies to the Electoral Commission. Let it be on record."

He further expressed doubt over the validity of the NDC's claims, adding: "I challenge them. If the NDC indeed has any further allegations, they should bring them forward for interrogation and to see whether the Electoral Commission has addressed them. It’s not a question of having a leaking roof and simply mopping the floor," he added.
