The Electoral Commission (EC) has debunked claims to the effect that the Electoral Managenent Body is carrying out an agenda to remove the names of National Democratic Congress' (NDC) supporters and sympathizers from the voters' register.
The EC is asking the general public to disregard the allegations, stressing it is false.
“The Commission has, from the beginning of the compilation of the Voters Register, lived up to its motto: Fairness, Transparency and Accountability. Indeed, at every point, we have provided factual, accurate and evidence based information to our Stakeholders on voter statistics per region, district, gender, age
among others. To date, every interested Ghanaian has information on the number of persons who registered in the just concluded Voter Registration Exercise based on the information we provided.
“It is a paradox, therefore, to suggest that the same Commission now seeks to remove persons from the Voters Register. Had that been the agenda of the Commission, it would not have given detailed information to Stakeholders throughout the Registration process. We assure the General Public that these allegations are unfounded,” a statement by the Electoral Commission read.

Woe onto the EC on the day of voting i will go and not find my particulars. i rest my case for now.
Bogus! Have you seen registration errors carried out without consultation with parties in the election process? Your incompetence is indeed legendary. Fairness is one's ability to eliminate suspicions. An organization the supervises an election has no option than to be transparent and build consensus. You cannot unilaterally expunge names from the register or reprint cards and expect no suspicions or doubts to be raised. Even if you are not doing anything wrong, your lack of transparency is what is causing the problem. Even an elementary school prefect knows that.
