The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has said their agents and Police are vigilant to ensure that unscrupulous persons do not interfere with the electoral process.
Communications Director of the Bawumia team, Dennis Miracles Aboagye said this after calling for the prosecution of the officer of the Electoral Commission (EC) who has been arrested for issuing ballot papers without the face of the presidential Candidate of the NPP, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia. "We demand the immediate prosecutor of this EC official." He added, " To all those planning with the NDC to cause troubles, we have a robust system in place to find you out."
