PRESS CONFERENCE ADDRESSED BY NDC GENERAL SECRETARY, HON.
FIFI FIAVI KWETEY ON THE UNCONSTITUTIONAL, UNDEMOCRATIC, AND PROVOCATIVE DISQUALIFICATION BY THE ELECTORAL COMMISSION OF THE NDC'S AMENFI CENTRAL PARLIAMENTARY CANDIDATELadies and gentlemen of the press, party faithfuls, and the good people of Ghana, we appreciate your swift response to this urgent call, and we are grateful that you have gathered here on short notice to engage with us on a matter of immense national importance.Today, we stand before you to expose the unconstitutional, undemocratic, and provocative actions of the Jean Mensa-led Electoral Commission (EC), which have once again demonstrated its bias and incompetence by unlawfully disqualifying our duly elected parliamentary candidate for the Amenfi Central Constituency, Madam Joana Gyan Cudjoe.
The facts surrounding this travesty are known to all.
Yet, the EC, in an act of sheer disregard for legal processes and justice, has chosen to disqualify a candidate based on an expired and irrelevant interlocutory injunction tied to a completely different election.
