Ningo -Prampram Npp Members Demand Annulment Of Constituency Elections Over Alleged Irregularities.
Some aggrieved constituency executives and members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Ningo-Prampram Constituency are calling on the party’s national leadership to annul the recently held constituency elections, alleging that the process was fraught with irregularities and failed to comply with party directives.
According to the group, the elections should not have taken place because the party’s national leadership had earlier directed that the exercise be put on hold.
They claim that directive was ignored, raising questions about the legitimacy of the process.
Addressing a press conference, the aggrieved members further alleged that the names of several polling station executives were deliberately and unlawfully removed from the constituency electoral album, preventing them from participating in the election.
The group also accused the acting Elections Committee Chairman, Mr. Ntim, and another party member identified as Solo, of manipulating the electoral process to serve their personal interests while disregarding instructions from the national leadership.
As a result, they say they do not recognise the newly elected constituency executives, insisting that the election lacked fairness, transparency and credibility.
They are therefore urging the national executives of the NPP to intervene immediately, investigate the alleged irregularities and pronounce a verdict on the disputed election to prevent further divisions that could undermine the party’s fortunes in future elections.
Some aggrieved party members spoke to us.
The Constituency chairman, Frederick Brown Glover appealed to the national leadership to act swiftly to restore calm, unity and confidence within the constituency.
He urged party members to disregard any individuals claiming to have assumed leadership through what he described as an illegitimate electoral process.
