The Electoral Commissioner and some religious leaders from DR Congo, have called on former president John Mahama for some electoral advice.
The religious leaders in DR Congo are impressed with the manner in which faith-based organizations have helped to promote peace during electioneering periods and are in Ghana to learn from their counterparts and duplicate same in DR Congo.
Electoral Commissioner of DR Congo, Nanga Yobeluo Corneille, who accompanied the religious leaders briefed Mr. Mahama on the political make-up of the country.
Mr. Mahama then briefed the EC and the religious leaders about the evolution of elections in Ghana.
He also highlighted the peace agreement that all political leaders are made to sign before elections.
“The religious leaders, traditional leaders and Civil Society Organizations make us sign a peace declaration and it is published in the newspapers, so that is an effective means of committing us [politicians] to a peaceful process,” he said.
Mr. Mahama however, highlighted that without a transparent Electoral Commission, these efforts will come to naught and electoral disputes will occur.

they want to find out how to stealllll votes. the congolese EC knows that the npp is too strict but mahama knows how to have his way by stealinggggg votes. if not why will they consult someone who won 44% of votes and lost miserable. kabila wants to stealllll and stay in power.
Well I believe JDM will share his candid experience with the DR Congo officials by advicing them to conduct free and fair elections because the people will always decide who their leader is. Therefore coming to Ghana was a good advise. With Kabila in power, how can the EC Chairperson of DR Congo conduct free and fair elections for the people of congo to have their voices heard legitimately?
A prophet is indeed without honor in his own surroundings, it is a plus to Ghana's democracy, look beyond John Mahama and see the positives it does to Ghana. Those trading insults, I say grow up for children also read our comments,
Advice indeed. This Congo EC is a concert man paa. So JDM is now the EC of Ghana, that some people from congo will go to him for advice ? lol. let us get serious wai Africa.
so bad we vilify own. JDM u r indeed a blessing to Ghana.
Hahahaha very funny. Are theses guys serious? Electoral Advice indeed. Are they aware of what happened in his own country, as well as when he led the observer team to supervise the Kenya election. I need not say more. If the want Kabila to stay in power then they had consulted the right person. Very laughable.
mahama the best in africa

MAHAMA HAS TOU-ZAFI ALCOHO-LIC FACE.DONT YOU AGREE?
