IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW CORRUPT EC OFFICIALS ARE THEN READ THE FOLLOWING:
The Member of Parliament (MP) for Afram Plains South, Joseph Appiah Boateng, has threatened to sue the Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana if it does not come out to clear the controversy surrounding the filing of nomination of two NDC candidates for the area.

On the deadline of submission of nomination forms for parliamentary candidates, two stalwarts from the NDC filed to contest the Afram Plains South seat following the resignation of Mr. Boateng, to contest for a second time.

The two, Mark-Oliver Kevor, the Eastern Regional Secretary of the NDC and Eric Osei-Owusu are all said to have filed their nomination at the same time but the Returning Officer for the area announced the former as the candidate for the Akatamansonians after scrutinizing his forms.

Kevor, according to inside sources, was given the mandate to file on the ticket of the Akatamansonians by the National Chairman of the NDC, Kofi Portuphy.

However, Eric Osei-Owusu who contested the incumbent MP but lost, according to party officials, was also given the mandate to file by the party’s Chief Scribe, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, popularly known as General Mosquito.

The two candidates have been campaigning simultaneously as the NDC parliamentary candidate for the area.

Party officials in the Afram Plains South have for the past three weeks, been putting pressure on the National Executives of the party to settle matter as soon as possible or risk losing the seat to the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).

The MP on Thursday, October 13, 2016 gave the EC a 48-hour ultimatum to publicly announce the candidate who filed to contest on the ticket of the NDC. Failure to do so, he added, will see the EC being dragged to court.

But Mr. Nketiah commenting on the issue in an interaction with sit-in host, Kwaku Owusu Agyei, on Anopa Kasapa on Kasapa 102.5 FM, Monday, said Eric Osei-Owusu is the candidate the party has sanctioned to represent the Afram Plains South.

“If you go to the records of the Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana, the one who has filed in the name of the NDC and who has been given the power to represent the party is Eric Osei-Owusu,” he announced.

Asked whether he is aware that Mr. Portuphy has also sanctioned the candidacy of Mark-Oliver Kevor, he retorted “We don’t have such in the records of the NDC.”

Mr. Boateng reacting to the comments of his party’s Chief Scribe on the problem said the EC has more questions to answer regarding the eligibility of Eric Osei-Owusu to contest the Afram Plains South parliamentary seat.

He told Owusu Adjei that as at the time of close of nomination, the CEO of Ghana Buffer Stock had not filed his nomination and therefore wondered how Mr. Osei-Owusu got that opportunity to represent the party.

“As at the close of nomination on the deadline date, September 30, 2016, Osei-Owusu had not filed his nomination. The EC closed at 5:00pm. And at 5:30pm, the EC announced that three candidates including Mark-Oliver Kevor had filed their nominations. So, I am wondering how Osei-Owusu filed his nomination.”

“The EC must tell us the date it opened their offices for Osei-Owusu to file his nomination. Again, as at the close of nomination, Osei-Owusu had not transferred his vote to the constituency. So, the EC must tell us when it transferred the vote of Osei-Owusu to the constituency. I want the EC to come out to explain itself on the matter or face court action,” he noted.

What a damned fool I will be to be sent by someone and allow that same person to betray me? I ask all NDC folks on this platform to answer me; who will accept this kind of a noose around his neck?

The popular saying is that before a blind person threatens to throw a stone at you it means he's standing on one. So all the while that the NDC were telling the world they were going to win more than 1.5 million votes in A.R. they knew exactly what they were planning. No wonder that while they were targeting some 10 seats they still hoped Mahama could win 1.5 million out of the total voter population of about 3 million.

The winner of Wednesday's Election will be determined by "Swing Voters" like me. The fact is that NPP is no communicating well with us. Insult on the person of the EC Chair, the Buguri Naabu bribery scandal, insult on the IGP by Kennedy Ageapong, capitalizing on the administrative errors by the police on the special vote, and staging alleged election infraction like this are not the message swing voters want to hear.

In fact, NPP is getting on our nerves with statements that seems to suggest that they will hit the street if they do not win the elections.

Press Release: NPP assertion of Thumb printed Ballots scandalous

The attention of Madison Lodge has been drawn to images and videos circulating on social media, alleging that thumb printed ballot papers were found in our hotel rooms.
We wish to state the following

1. On Saturday, December 3 at 7:20PM, a gentleman by name Andy Owusu, who is a known face in Kumasi and special Assistant to Chairman Wontumi, booked three rooms, he said was meant for some investors of his business.
2. He dropped 2 Bags and stayed in the room for 2 hours with a fair lady.
3. Chairman Wontumi, on Sunday, led Police men and media to our hotel premises to the very room his assistant booked, only to be told they were thumb printed Ballot.
4. We see this as scandalous and an attempt to destroy our brand as one of the serene hotels in Kumasi.
5. We are therefore willing to cooperate with the Police to find the true intent of Chairman Wontumi and his special Assistant.

Thank You.

Vigilance is most critical because the rigging is very real. What happened to that printing plate of Innolink that was supposedly handed over to a Representative of Aero Vote?
Did Aero Vote use the plate and who was that Representative they sent to Innolink for the plate?
Where is the plate? Was it burnt along with the other plates in the full view of the relevant stakeholders?
The modus operandi of Asiedu Netia and Johnn Mahama and the EC is written all over this incident of already thumb-printed ballot papers ready to be stuffed into the ballot boxes.
It will be recalled already thumb-printed ballot boxes delivered by the EC Chair to one of the constituencies, was it Savelugu was already done, and it took the vigilance of the NPP to expose that criminal attempt. Amadu Sulley who was present said they would be replaced. Where did those already thumb-printed ballot papers go? Was it burnt? Who has it? Did the EC indeed replace those ballot papers? And in printing more ballot papers to replace the rigged ones, have some of these replacement ballot papers found it's way elsewhere under the eagle eyes of Charlotte Osei working in cahoots with Mahama?

You think we don't know u planned and staged this evil act? Because u are scared of NDC getting one million votes in Kumasi u decided to perpetrate this diabolic act just to tell the whole world that JM and the NDC want to rig the election. Your evil plans have failed and whether u like it or not the NDC will still get the one million votes in Kumasi. I know the madman Wo Ntumi is behind this plot.

The voters register is biometric, the police should scan the thumbprint and compare with the register. Guaranteed to find the culprit.

Press Release: NPP assertion of Thumb printed Ballots scandalous

The attention of Madison Lodge has been drawn to images and videos circulating on social media, alleging that thumb printed ballot papers were found in our hotel rooms.

We wish to state the following

1. On Saturday, December 3 at 7:20PM, a gentleman by name Andy Owusu, who is a known face in Kumasi and special Assistant to Chairman Wontumi, booked three rooms, he said was meant for some investors of his business.

2. He dropped 2 Bags and stayed in the room for 2 hours with a fair lady.

3. Chairman Wontumi, on Sunday, led Police men and media to our hotel premises to the very room his assistant booked, only to be told they were thumb printed Ballot.

4. We see this as scandalous and an attempt to destroy our brand as one of the serene hotels in Kumasi.

5. We are therefore willing to cooperate with the Police to find the true intent of Chairman Wontumi and his special Assistant.

Thank You.

Evans Nuamah,
Hotel Manager

why are we drugging the name of mother Ghana in the mud? it's a very big shame to think that the person or group of people who published this news are the so called educated. what kind of a story is this?This is a story that can start a war. The story has no head nor tail. what is there to investigate about ballot papers with a tumb-print?did they walk to the said hotel? Does the hotel in questions have a name? oh very sorry for those who published this evil story and their families. I promise that should any thing happen in Ghana, they will never survive. how did they even get such a news? Do those evil ghanaians think the rest of us are foolish to buy this under statement? These criminals must confess and apologise to Otumfuo, Asante hene.

the only way corruption can stop in governance is to get his excellency John Mahama and his possible excellency Nana Akufo Addo to work together as president and vise. Ghana is not a football field where we are looking out for who scores more goals. If Nana wins president Mahama must know where he is driving Ghana to. If Mahama is given the mandate to continue Nana must know where he is driving Ghana to. let's learn to push one man up and stop distracting each other. If we continue the old way, it would be better for the colonial masters to come back and rule. After all all our so called leaders are in power because they read books written by the colonial masters and their children, let's think wisely children of Ghana. do not be deceived there's nothing like independence at the moment. We are less than slaves in our nation. example just imagine Ghana being 7th dirtiest nation in the world?yet we pump so much money into politics and mighty billboards Hahahahah shaaaame
