This story does not reflect the real situation on the ground…..
ReplyDeleteHow does ballots papers and other electoral materials finds its way into the hands of a contestant?
What happens to those materials during transportation to its destination?
When did it become a normal for the NDC to channel its internal electoral materials through a candidate who himself has an interest?
Why should a former DCE take an entrenched position that his favorite candidates win at all cost?
Does the party cloth a constituency chairman with the power to single handedly choose a venue for a conference?
Why should the constituency chairman (a candidate) and the former DCE disregard advices from all security agencies in the constituency not to hold such elections in the venue the chairman alone and the former DCE choose?
The National Executives of our Great Party NDC must as a matter of urgency step in to resolve this matter once and for all for the smooth running of the Upper Denkyira West constituency…….
