Accra, Jan. 5, GNA - The Electoral Commission (EC) on Monday said some members of staff had been issued with threats through SMS text mobile calls, radio broadcasts and on political platforms.
In a statement signed by Mrs Sylvia Annoh, Public Relations Officer, the EC said some people had resorted to making wild allegations of wrongdoing against members of staff.
"In particular, a so-called Dina Twawiah, who purports to be a worker of the Commission and made villainous allegations against Mr Albert Kofi Arhin, Director of Elections, and other members of staff, is not and has never been known to the Commission."
It expressed "utter displeasure" at the attacks on Mr Arhin's life, family and property.
"The Commission wishes to inform the general public that it will take all necessary steps to protect its integrity and the safety of its members of staff," the statement said.
