A former National Organiser of the National Democratic Congress [NDC] Kofi Adams says his party has Ghana at heart – therefore, defied all means to challenge the 2016 presidential election knowing very well that the NPP won the election through dubious means.
Mr Adams was emphatic that the 2016 presidential election was 'heavily rigged' to favour the then opposition New Patriotic Party [NPP] led by its flagbearer, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
“We knew something was wrong when results started coming from various regions. Considering the tension that was building on then [in 2016], if we had challenged the results, Ghana wouldn’t have been what it is today,” he said in an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show, 'Ghana Montie'.
Koif Adams backed former President John Dramani Mahama’s claim that the 2016 was not “free and fair” – after applauding his decision “to let go” the 2016 election for the peace of the country.
Mahama who is still not over the 2016 ‘embarrassing’ defeat has called on the Electoral Commission to publish details of its investigations into the hacking of its transmission system during the 2016 general elections.
According to him, Ghanaians deserve to know circumstances under which the EC’s system was compromised at the time.
“As I speak, I am not aware that the Electoral Commission has carried out any investigation into what compromised their IT system. And even if they have, we the stakeholders, the political parties, have not been briefed on what caused the corruption of the system.”
“In the interest of transparency, it is important for Ghanaians to understand what happened before we go into another election,” the former President said during a presentation at the Saïd Business School, Oxford University, organised in collaboration with the African Studies Centre and the Oxford Africa.

HEY DUMMMMB HEAD JOHN MAHAMA JUST GO TO COURT AND STOP YOUR BULLLLLSHIT TALK.
A phantom idea of rigging. What do politicians drink before coming out to speak? I don't understand what I'm reading? Kofi please come again! After the NDC appointed EC the NPP was able to rig the elections? Please then let's give the reigns of govt to the NPP for life, they are too SMART then
An inept national organisor who sat without even collating results of even the few and miserable votes cast for them. You consult a mass survey to inform us that one million of your people never voted due to apathy and after two years you come again in support of the incompetent one that the elections were rigged. By an opposition party and your darling girl as EC chair....like seriously?. l am sure this is just to prepare the grounds for the big defeat which is to come in 2020. Big Same
It is true that NDC has never genuinely won any elections in Ghana. They always rig with the help of either EC, STL or both. They will lose all the seats in Asante Region, lose at least six seats each in the new regions and they will see where the truth is. They are just preparing the minds of their supporters so they will cry wolf when Mahama loses by 1.5million votes in December 2020. How can they say that the Ghana card is being produced to be used for rigging the elections in 2020?
OH JOHN MAHAMA, ASIEDU NKETIA AND KOFI ADAMS, WHEN WILL YOU GUYS THINK STRAIGHT. ONCE MAHAMA COUGHS YOU GUYS ALSO COUGHS. YOU SAW THE ELECTION BEING RIGGED AND AS INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT WHO APPOINTED THE INCOMPETENT CHARLOTTE OSEI THE EC CHAIRPERSON; YOU COULD NOT FIND OUT THE CAUSE AND YOU WANT THE NEW EC TO DO THAT JOB FOR YOU?
