After months of calls for a forensic audit of the voters register and a nationwide demonstration to back their call, the National Democratic Congress(NDC) after an Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting has since released a statement and the reason for which they agitated was not mentioned.

The party which is the largest opposition, has been trumpeting calls for an independent body to audit the electoral roll citing discrepancies it found during the exhibition of the register.

The NDC alleges discrepancies, including illegal name transfers, missing voters and the inclusion of the names of over 50,000 dead people.

NDC director of elections Dr Omane Boamah said an independent audit of the electoral roll is the only way to ensure transparency and fairness in the electoral process.
