The former President and flagbearer of the NDC, John Dramani Mahama, has been vociferous in his demand on the EC to agree to a forensic audit by a foreign entity, held a completely different view over a similar call in the run-up to the 2016 elections."Mr.
Mahama had this to say when the then opposition New Patriotic Party called for a new register for the purposes of the 2016 presidential and parliamentary elections:'Accusations and unprintable insults hauled at the person of EC Chair have become normal.
Before we go into any election, the register is exhibited, and the main purpose of the exhibition is for us to raise objections to people whose names are there which ought not to be there.
It includes the deletion of names of dead people too, so opportunity is given for people to present evidence'" the statement further held."From the above quotation, the then General Secretary of the NDC was saying that exhibition of voters' register is the best way to correct anomalies discovered in the voters' register.
Ghana is a sovereign state and cannot, therefore, hand over its voters' register to foreigners in the name of forensic auditing" IPG emphasized.
