Press Release
AFAG
June 26, 2015 |
NEW
EC BOSS MUST BE LISTENING: CONGRATS
Although the court
is yet to determine the process of appointing
the electoral commissioner or otherwise. The
Alliance for Accountable Governance (AFAG) in
search for a peaceful and stable Ghana, is not
against the appointment of the new EC. Hence, we
congratulate the new electoral commissioner for
her new office
AFAG in response to the call by the presidential
candidate of the NPP after the Supreme Court
verdict on Ghana's 2012 elections in 2013,
congratulated President John Mahama and called
for a united Ghana going forward.
Madam electoral commissioner, there is no other
window of opportunity should the 2016 elections
be grounded again in an electoral dispute. As
you step to work in your new office, you have
only 2 choices for a working principle. Either
you consider serving your God & country in
search of a peaceful and stable Ghana for your
children and children’s children or you
sacrifice this God given virtue to the whims and
caprices of your appointing authority obviously
to jeopardize the stability of this country.
We hope you will be firm but listening. A few
women in the past few years have brought their
public office into disrepute. We urge you not to
follow same. The role of IPAC as a consultative
forum for stakeholders should be not be over
looked and undermined.
Madam EC you are faced with the challenges of
electoral reforms, strengthening the legal unit
of the electoral commission, transparency in the
use of IT for your electoral operations and
adhering strictly to the rules and regulations
of elections.
We will give you the necessary support to work.
We urge all Ghanaians to rally behind our new
electoral commissioner. Let us give the EC
benefit of doubt.
God bless Ghana
Signed:
AFAG Leadership

MS NEW EC BOSS, NO NEW
REGISTER, NO VOTE!
Release, June 26, Ghanadot -
By this, the lawyer, who until her new appointment was
the Chairperson of the National Commission for Civic
Education, could be in charge of Ghana’s electoral
administration body for the next 28 years or so. This
calls for a person of utmost integrity and that can only
be determined by her actions and leadership.....We have
no problem with Mrs Osei personally, even though her
political leanings towards the ruling party has been
very clear over the last six or so years, at least. ......More |
