The Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo has charged members of the party to reject the call to participate in the Electoral Commission's (EC) mass voters registration exercise scheduled to begin on June 30, 2020.
Mr Ofosu-Ampofo said the party was against the compilation of the new voters register because the atmosphere in the country was not conducive for the exercise.
"We say no to the new register and even if Parliament passes the legislation we will not accept it. We are not just against it because they will not accept the old voter card but because the whole atmosphere in the country is not conducive," he said.
The NDC National Chairman was addressing a gathering of party members and executives at the NDC headquarters in Adabraka in Accra on Wednesday.
The gathering was to mark the 28th anniversary of the formation the NDC which contested its first national elections in 1992.
The flag raising ceremony had in attendance former President and flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr John Dramani Mahama who hoisted the NDC flag at the ceremony.

WHEN I WATCH OR LISTEN TO UTTERANCES AND ACTIONS OF OFOSU AMPOFO I KEEP ASKING MYSELF WHETHER HE MEANS WELL FOR NDC OR HE IS ONLY A PLOY TO DESTROY NDC. WHEN THE GHANA CARD WAS ENACTED HE DISCOURAGED HIS PARTY TO BOYCOTT IT. YET, THE FOUNDER, THE LEADER AND MPS OF HIS PARTY REGISTERED TO OBTAIN THE GHANA CARD. I BELIEVE HE OFOSU AMPOFO HAS A GHAANA CARD FOR HIMSELF. SADLY HE NEVER CAME OUT TO TELL HIS PARTY ABOUT THE CHANGE OF THEIR DECISION LEAVING MANY OF THEIR FOLLOWERS CONFUSED. ONCE AGAIN HE HAS COME OUT TO DISCOURAGE HIS FOLLOWERS NOT TO REGISTER FOR VOTER'S ID. EVERYONE SHOULD MARK IT THT J J, MAHAMA, NDC MPS AND EXECUTIVES WOULD BE AMONG THE FIRST TO REGISTER. OFOSU AMPOFO HIMSELF WILL REGISTER. UNFORTUNTELY HE WILL NOT COME OUT TO TELL HIS FOLLOWERS TO REGISTER LEAVING MANY OF THEM CONFUSED. I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT THE REASON FOR THIS DECEPTION. WHAT FIRST COME TO MY MIND THAT OFOSU AMPOFO IS DECEPTIVE. HE DOES NOT MEAN ANYTHING GOOD FOR HIS PARTY AND WANTS TO SEE IT COLLAPSED. ANOTHER EXPLANATION I CAN THINK OF IS THAT OFOSU AMPOFO SAY ONE THING IN PUBLIC AND SAY ANOTHER BEHIND CLOSED DOORS. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS TO HM IS THAT HE DOES NOT EXPECT THE NEW REGISTER TO BE AS MANY AS THE OLD WHICH WAS VERY MUCH BLOATED. SO HE IS DOING THIS TO INTERPRET THE LESS AND THE CLEAN NUMBER OF THE NEW REGISTER AS LOW PATRONAGE, AND NOT BECAUSE IT IS NOT BLOATED.
Please is it peacefmonline which is misquoting the chairman ofosu or is chairman ofosu who is confused because i don't get it.
How did you manage to get ELDER in the PENTECOST
Tell N D C not to register. After all NPP did not participate in the 1992 election. Do you feed somebody is this country.
THAT IS NDC LEADERS FOR YOU YEAH I KEPT ON SAYING IF YOU APPOINT A PALM WINE TAPPER AS GEN. SEC AND CHOOSE THE MOST CORRUPT ,MAN AS A PARTY LEAADER AND SURRANDED BY EVIL CHURCH ELDER AS A PARTY CHAIRMAN THAT WILL THE RESULT. HAAAAAAA AT END WHO WILL LOSE ITS NPP OR NDC OK THAT IS GOOD ADVISE LET THEM STAY HOME WE THE ELLIGIBLE GHANAIANS WILL REGISTER AND VOTER. IMCOMPETENT PARTY LEADERS.
Who is going to lose at end of the day, elder of Pentecost church, no wonder judgement day will begin at the church.Similar uugly voice was heard when the NIA was about to begin with the registration, but what did we see. Mr Ofosu Ampofo knows most of NDC supporters are dummmmps, and they always follow some of these 3seless orders like the caw being led to the slaughter house
Who has made the atmosphere so?
THANK YOU GOOD PARLIAMENTARIANS FOR SUPPORTING TO MOVE GHANA FORWARD. THIS IS GOOD FOR GHANA. WE NEED TO LIVE AND FUNCTION IN A WAY THAT CORRESPONDS TO THE BEST PRACTICES OF THE INTERNATIONAL WORLD. WE ARE NOT YET THERE AS WE SHALL STILL ACCEPT THE WITNESS OF TWO PERSONS. THE WORLD IS CHANGING AND MOVING FORWARD. GHANA CANNOT STAY BEHIND, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE PRIDE OURSELVES AS THE BRIGHT STAR OF AFRICA. IN ADVANCED WORLD CITIZENS HAVE ONE GOOD COMMON IDENTIFICATION ACCEPTED AS BASIC FOR ALL TRANSACTIONS. WE MUST KEEP WORKING ON GHANA CARD TO BEAT THE TRICK OF ANY FRAUDSTERRR. NO TRUE GHANAIAN, WELL INFORMED AND PROGRESSIVE WOULD FAIL TO SUPPORT THIS EFFORT TO PROTECT THE IDENTITY OF ALL GENUINE CITIZENS. IDENTIFICATION OF CITIZENS IS NOT A RACE OF NUMBERS BUT THE ABILITY TO SECURE THE QUALITY OF THE IDENTIFICATION.
Now that we will know who is minority and who is majority in Ghana. ***barred word***!
Very disappointed in you
