Following irregularities with the special voting exercise underway across the country, the acting General Secretary of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu, has called for an emergency Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting to address the challenges with the process.
The exercise – organised for members of the security services, staff of the Electoral Commission, journalists, and others whose involvement in the conduct of the polls will not enable them to exercise their franchise on Election Day – has recorded several complaints from some persons taking part in the ballot. The most common complaint made by voters is the absence of their names from the register, a situation which led to skirmishes at the Nima Police Station, one of the centres for the poll, resulting in a halt in voting.
On the back of these developments, Mr Boadu, in an interview with Accra100.5FM’s Jedidiah Patrick Anarfi, at the Korle Bu polling station, said “unless the Electoral Commission can come out and tell us the police or military did not present the list on time”, it should take the blame, wondering why after several years of special voting, the commission had failed to learn from past mistakes, with the “same difficulties” arising in subsequent polls.
Mr Boadu, who is also the National Organiser of the leading opposition party, thus, advised the EC to as soon as possible call the stakeholders in today’s poll to a meeting.
“I believe that, immediately, the Electoral Commission should call an IPAC meeting with police officers, soldiers, and all to find a way to resolve the problem,” he added.

Amadu Sulley is as incompetent as John mahama his friend. Amadu Sulley has been at the EC for a long time and he is incharge of operations so he is the right person to have caused all these confusions. Amadu Sulley and John mahama are birds of the same feathers, incompetency is their name the only thing they best at is ste*ling,crook ways and rigging. Two friends with high office and from one place the north are disgrace to their people. If Amadu Sulley,John Mahama,Agambile, Inusah Fuseini and those ndc cro*ks from the North haven't come down South to do politics I never knew there were cro*ks in the North. Dr Hilla Limann had a lot of Northerners in his government but never did we hear such kalabule,President Kuffuor had most Northerners in his government who did marvellous work to serve their country that ndc tried hard to find something against them but found none very honest people who gave their people great honour to be proud of. Thank God Chairman Bugri Naabu has shown they are still the honest people to believe in from the North, Dr Bawumiah is one such beatific gentleman who is a real gem of the North. NDC are just thi*ves who don't deserve to be giving a mandate.
THIS STATEMENT COMING FROM MAHAMA'S BROTHER ALFRED JUST CONFIRMS THAT MAHAMA AND HIS BROTHER IBRAHIM TRULY BRIBED BUGRI NAABU. "BENEVOLENCE" IN MAHAMA, IBRAHIM MAHAMA AND NDC DICTIONARY MEANS BRIBERY. THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY GAVE TO AFOKO,KAGYEPONG, CRABBE, WEREKO-BROBBEY, ARTHUR KENNEDY, NYAHO TAMAKLOE AND THE REST OF THE TRAITORS. JAH BLESS BUGRI NAABU FOR TAKING MAHAMA'S MONEY BUT REJECTING TO RUN DOWN AKUFO ADDO/NPP CAMPAIGN. GHANA PEOPLE LET'S ARISE AND VOTE OUT BARAWO MAHAMA AND HIS BARAWO BROTHER IBRAHIM, FRIENDS AND DEVIL NDC IN DECEMBER. INSHA ALLAH!!!
