The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has accused the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of working with the Electoral Commission (EC) to rig the election on December 07, 2024.
According to John Dramani Mahama, the NPP internally knows it will lose the 2024 election.
In a Facebook post, The former president firmly stated that the NDC is fully aware of the NPP and the EC's likely plan to gerrymander votes to their strongholds and is resolute in its determination to prevent such manipulation.
He also indicated that the move was to ensure they had bettered their parliamentary fortunes because it had aided them in the presidential election.
"The Electoral Commission's decision not to allow agents of political parties to observe the ongoing voter transfer exercise points to only one thing. The EC's vowed determination to aid the ruling NPP in stealing the outcome of the 2024 elections."
But as I have continued to repeat, and did the past weekend in Tongo, this collusion between the EC and the NPP will not work. They will fail!
I am unsurprised that the NPP and the EC quickly reversed a collective decision at an IPAC meeting last week to have political party agents present at the district offices for the transfer exercise.
"The NPP knows and internally admits it will lose the 2024 presidential elections. We also know that, as a last resort, it seeks to deploy gerrymandering during this voter transfer period to improve its chances in the parliamentary elections in the erroneous belief that it may rely on that to affect its presidential votes."
He added that they will fail because their strategy will not work. They put in place a long list of constituencies in the Ashanti and Eastern Regions and some selected areas in Greater Accra and other regions where the NPP seeks to transfer thousands of voters from their strongholds to offset the NDC's gains in constituencies we control.
Mr. Mahama believes that Ghanaians have already decided to vote Akufo-Addo and Bawumia out because of their unprecedented hardships due to their economic mismanagement and deep-seated corruption.
"I am sure that no amount of collusion between the Electoral Commission and the NPP can rescue the NPP on December 07, 2024. We have instructed our party at all levels to continue to be present and observe the transfer process".
The NDC flagbearer has challenged the EC leadership to follow its expected order and stop operating in the ruling party's interest.
