NDC Member of Parliament for Ablekuma Central, Theophilus Tetteh Chaie has admonished his fellow politicians not to incite their supporters to crowd polling stations during the general elections.

According to him, supporters lurking around the polling stations after voting for their various candidates in the Parliamentary and Presidential elections could breed chaos and destroy the country's peace.

Speaking on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo', Hon. Tetteh Chaie was particularly concerned about this trend because in his view, there could be congestion at the polling stations if all the electorates are to lie in wait at the stations while voting ongoing.

He advised that the best approach is for the electorates to return home and come back to the polling stations when it's time for the counting of the ballot papers.

“We’re going to create a chaotic situation and that will not end us well as a nation. So, I plead with the various political parties to refrain from making such statements. It won’t help the elections to be peaceful,” he said.

Also addressing the issue on 'Kokrokoo', the Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwesi Pratt Jnr. called for transparency and fairness in the elections.

He urged the electorates to ensure peace in the elections.
