Former President Jerry John Rawlings has charged the Electoral Commission to ensure the Integrity of the 2020 Elections. The NDC founder made this call when he received a delegation of Chiefs from the Anlo Traditional Area.
According to the former President, the EC must uphold the sanctity and integrity of the 2020 Presidential and Parliamentary elections, by ensuring that the electoral register is cleaned up following recent reports of missing names and other challenges during the exhibition of the register.
The former President also stated that notwithstanding the good intentions of government to protect the country’s territorial interest and integrity, the recent deployment of the military and other security services that sparked some disaffection could have been done without the passion it generated.
At the meeting on Thursday, former President Rawlings said, he raised these observations when at a recent meeting with the National Security Minister, the latter enquired if he had any concerns about current national issues. The delegation of Chiefs led by the Awadada of the Anlo State, Togbe Agbesi Awusu II who came to mourn the demise of Madam Victoria Agbotui, mother of the former President and a Queen-mother of the Anlo State, said aside consoling him, they had planned to visit to express solidarity over the outrageous fabrications, untruths and disgusting historical distortions published in a recent book.
