�No Verification No Vote� - NPP Insists After Rubbishing EC�s Manual Verification

Acting General Secretary of the opposition New Patriotic Party [NPP], John Boadu says his party still maintain their stand on “No verification no vote” despite the Electoral Commission attempts to ignore their concerns in this year’s election.

According to the EC, the ‘NVNV’ challenges that confronted the 2012 elections may be put to rest after developing a system to capture the data of all those whose fingerprints the machine is unable to read.

When it comes to effect, the system which will be dubbed as “manual verification” is expected to clear one of the nightmares of the EC which was accused of failing to implement a rule it stated in the law (CI 72) that regulated the 2012 elections.

But the NPP is strongly against the system – its acting chief scribe, John Boadu emphatically stated in an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show Ghana Montie that, the NPP is bent on No verification no vote.

“We the [NPP] want to the EC that, we will not accept the manual verification system. We still maintain our No verification no vote.
That din don attitude of the electoral commission is unacceptable. We will agree to their system today or tomorrow.” He said
