NDC's Jamal Konneh Accuses EC's Jean Mensa of Plot to Secure NPP Seats

The Eastern Regional Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Jamal Konneh, has made a shocking accusation against the Chair of the Electoral Commission (EC), Jean Mensa. According to Konneh, Mensa is involved in a "diabolic plan" to secure additional seats for the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

Konneh's accusation comes after Mensa announced that the EC would not accept the parliamentary results from nine constituencies, citing irregularities and declarations made under duress. The affected constituencies include Nsawam-Adoagyiri, Ahafo Ano South West, Ahafo Ano North, Obuasi East, Okaikwei Central, Ablekuma North, Tema Central, Techiman South, and Dome-Kwabenya.

Konneh claims that Mensa's actions are unfair and that she is trying to manipulate the electoral process to favor the NPP. He accuses Mensa of doing the bidding of the NPP and of trying to secure additional seats for the party.

The NDC Secretary also questioned the EC's decision to re-collate results in the affected constituencies, citing concerns about the transparency and fairness of the process. He accused the EC of trying to alter the outcome of the elections in favor of the NPP.

Konneh's accusations have sparked a heated debate, with the NPP and the EC denying any wrongdoing. The EC has maintained that its decision to re-collate results in the affected constituencies is based on its commitment to ensuring the integrity and transparency of the electoral process.

The controversy surrounding the electoral process in Ghana has raised concerns about the country's democratic credentials. The NDC and other opposition parties have accused the EC and the NPP of trying to manipulate the electoral process to favor the ruling party.

The situation has also sparked a wider debate about the need for electoral reform in Ghana. Many have called for the EC to be more transparent and accountable in its decision-making processes, and for the government to take steps to address the underlying issues that have led to the current controversy.

As the controversy continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the situation will be resolved. The NDC and other opposition parties have vowed to resist any attempts by the EC and the NPP to manipulate the electoral process, and to ensure that the will of the people is respected.

The outcome of the controversy will have significant implications for Ghana's democracy and its future. It is essential that the EC and the government take steps to address the concerns of the opposition parties and to ensure that the electoral process is transparent, fair, and accountable.
