When NDC Smiles, Jean Mensah Gets Angry; That’s Why We Boycotted EC’s Forum – Otokunor

Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Peter Boamah Otokunor says the party doubts the credibility of the Electoral Commission chair, Jean Mensah and her deputies, a reason why they boycotted a forum organized by the commission.

According to him, the independence of the EC is in question considering how they’ve constantly maligned the NDC in previous meetings with IPAC.

“First of all, we are questioning the credibility of current Electoral Commission led by Jean Mensa and the two deputies. We are questioning their credibility. We believe that they do not hold that independence as is expected of an electoral management body.”

“The second point is that current IPAC  as it stands with its current disposition  and the disposition of the leaders of IPAC  which is the EC chairs persons and the  deputies is something that we must look at  and find a proper position of IPAC, come up with clear procedures of handling meetings , when we smile at IPAC the EC chair will be angry  and they can talk to you anyhow, you can’t smile at IPAC, you can’t make your point at IPAC  when you descend on a position of the electoral commission. That must stop no,” he told Accra based Joy FM.
