Seasoned journalist and social commentator, Ben Ephson is urging the Electoral Commission (EC) to prosecute the five disqualified presidential aspirants in the upcoming December 7 polls.
Mr. Ephson believes dragging them to face the law will be deterrent enough to prevent similar future occurrences.
Speaking on an Accra-based radio station, the Editor of Daily Dispatch Newspaper intimated that had such action been taken in 2016 against disqualified aspirants, aspirants would have done the right thing to prevent any disqualification this year.
Independent aspirants Marricke Gane and Kwesi Koranteng, Kwesi Busumuru of the Popular Action Party, Akwasi Addae Odike of the UPP and UFP’s Nana Agyenim Boateng have all been barred from the 2020 polls by the EC due to some infractions on their nomination forms.
