The Minister of Defence, Dr Edward Omane Boamah, has called for a collective and bipartisan approach to address what he describes as a "broken" Electoral Commission (EC).

His comments follow growing concerns after the Commission's decision to rerun elections in 19 polling stations within the Ablekuma North constituency.

In a Facebook post on July 8, 2025, Dr Boamah, who also served as the immediate past Director of Elections and IT for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), expressed deep concern over the state of the EC.

He noted that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) had previously failed to heed warnings and concerns raised ahead of the 2024 general elections. "The issues that were flagged before the elections were ignored, and now the consequences are unfolding," Dr Boamah stated.
