The Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana has urged the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) to provide data on alleged discrepancies in the voters’ register rather than resorting to demonstrations planned for September 17, 2024. EC Deputy Chairman Samuel Tettey emphasized the importance of dialogue, stating that a thorough investigation could be conducted within a week if the NDC submits the required data. In response, NDC leader John Dramani Mahama defended the protest, asserting it aims to ensure transparency and peace during the electoral process, as inaccuracies in the register could undermine the election's integrity. The NDC has expressed ongoing concerns over the accuracy of the register and is mobilizing members nationwide to demonstrate their demands for electoral reforms. Meanwhile, the EC remains committed to resolving any issues and has called for cooperation instead of street protests, highlighting its track record in managing past elections. The situation underscores the tension between the EC and the NDC as the December elections approach, with both sides advocating for a credible and peaceful electoral process.
