General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Justin Kodua Frimpong has said that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has still not submitted the discrepancies they have identified with the voter register to the Electoral Commission (EC).

Kodua Frimpong dared the NDC to present their claims to the Commission for scrutiny.

He said this at the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting on Tuesday, October 1, 2024, Mr Kodua challenged the NDC to

“Not long ago, certain people staged a demonstration against the Electoral Commission based on what they perceived to be discrepancies in an attempt to rig the election for the New Patriotic Party (NPP),” he stated.

“Despite several calls from key stakeholders, including ourselves, asking the NDC to raise legitimate concerns, we even suggested they hold a press conference and invite all of us to review these allegations. Today, as we speak, the NDC is yet to provide the so-called allegations and discrepancies to the Electoral Commission. Let it be on record.”

“I challenge them. If the NDC indeed has any further allegations, they should bring them forward for interrogation and to see whether the Electoral Commission has addressed them.

“It’s not a question of having a leaking roof and simply mopping the floor,” he added.

But Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, the NDC’s Director of Elections and IT, said at the same event that the party is strategically withholding some information to ensure a more calculated approach.

“That is one of the reasons – it is not strategic to provide the Electoral Commission with the full gamut of what we have,” he said.
