Abolition of delegate system is not a cure for monetisation – Evans Nimako
The Supreme Court recently directed political parties to replace the delegate-based system with one that allows all eligible party members to participate directly in parliamentary and presidential primaries within one year.
The Director of Elections of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Evans Nimako, says the Supreme Court’s decision against the use of a delegate system in parliamentary primaries will not necessarily solve the problem of monetisation in Ghana’s politics.
If this burden is being brought on the political parties, you would expect that they comply with the law, and in doing so, they must get money to conduct their internal election,” he added.
