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.

This can only come from an INCOMPETENT national organizer who sent his party, led by another INCOMPETENT ONE (Mr TIO) into a comfortable opposition. Now he is blaming their classic defeat on rigging? Indeed, the NDC is sensing defeat already, so they are preparing the minds of their disappointed suporters for the obvious. NDC is FINISHED! Walai!!!!
NDC CAN CLEARLY SEE DEFEAT HENCE LET PRE-ANNOUNCE IT EC DOES SO.WHO RIGGED 2016 ELECTIONS?, NDC KNEW THE ELECTIONS WERE RIGGED YET THEY WERE IN A COMFORTABLE LEAD OR? IF NDC IS A SERIOUS PARTY THEN THEY START CONSIDERING THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF DR KWESI BOTCHWAY COMMITTEE'S INVESTIGATIONS AND NOT ASKING EC TO PUBLISH ANY OUTCOME BECAUSE IT WASN'T JANE MENSAH WHO SAID THE IT SYSTEM HACKED RATHER JOHN MAHAMA'S SWEETHEART SHARLOTTE OSEI.POSSIBLY MAHAMA IS LOOKING TROUBLE FOR THIS WOMAN, SHARLOTTE OSEI AND SIGNS ARE CLEAR.
Anyway, it is still not too late Mr. Adams. Can you please go to court.
That is why I continue to say that NDC is '***barred word***" Party. You could not collate your party results throughout the country, but you prefer to rely on the EC and Charllote Osei to do your job for you. I will agree with Mahama and his NDC if they are able to produce solid evidence of their party results to back this assertion of rigging. My worry now is that, why did they spend money. time, energy and other resources to engage Prof. Kwesi Botchway and his research team to gallivant throughout the whole country looking for reasons for their defeat in 2016 when they knew the elections were heavily rigged? And why did Mahama never raise the issue till now when a new EC is in place? An why not in Ghana where the elections took place, but in far away UK? Is this another symptom of INCOMPETENCE?
***barred word***, nkwaseakeka kwa.
Kofi Adams was the national organizer and campaign manager for NDC and John Mahama. He and his team went to sleep because he was assured of 52.4% victory by the EC's Chair and Deputy Chair for operations Amadu Sulley. Ben Ephson also repeated these same figures even when the figures were out and it was obvious that Mahama had lost the elections heavily and disastrously. All they had to do was to ensure that the funds allocated for the elections by John Mahama and NDC was completely looted. How come NDC could not do any complete collation of the election results, and after almost two and a half years, Mahama, Asiedu Nketia and Kofi Adams are now waking up to the realization that stealing is not good. My advice to them is that they should go back to the drawing board and plan better than they did in 2016. In any case, they will fail again if they try to rig because no one will sit down for them to rig. NDC has in fact never won any clean elections in Ghana.
Incompetent John Ford Mahana appointed incompetent Charlotte Osei under whose nose they claim the election was rigged. Ananse story.... These ndc guys are always in concert party mood. Leave us alone to enjoy our country. If ndc is a serious party they will punish Kofi Adam's for letting the party down.
During the 2016 elections, the pink sheets saved Ghana from these people who only relied on the rigging machinery that was put in place by Mahama, Charlotte and Amadu Sulley. Never again can NDC rig an election in Ghana. By 1 a.m. on 8th December, NPP had completed the collation of 98% of the polling station and constituency results. Because NDC was only relying on rigging machinery promised by Charlotte through STL Israelis and South Africans, NDc didn't do any collation of the results till today. When it failed, NDc was left so helpless and hopeless they couldn't even tell Ghanaians how many constituencies they had won. They were unable to hack into the EC's system and they started crying. With the following in place now, it will be more difficult for NDC to win an election in Ghana now and in the future. 1. Free SHS, 2. Six new regions, 3. Planting for food and jobs, 4. Planting for Export and Rural Development, 5. Settlement of Dagbon Chieftancy dispute, 6. The use of NIA Ghana Card by citizens, or rejection of Health Insurance Card for Voters ID card, 7. Massive corruption cases against former NDC appointees, 1D1F, 1V1D, 1D1Warehouse, etc. They know they can't rig anymore, and that's why they've started crying wolf with the Ghana Card. Let's see how many constituencies they can win in the Oti Region.
Too many m..orons and i.d.io..ts parading around in Ghana as polticians.
LISTEN TO THIS KOTOKOLI KOFI ADAMU MAN FROM TOGO. NDC, WHY THEN WAS NDC DEFENDING CHARLOTTE OSEI WHEN THEY KNEW THE ELECTION WAS HEAVILY RIGGED ?
