AUDIO: Don't be afraid, we're behind you

The ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has thrown their weight behind the Electoral Commission (EC) for the compilation of new voters’ register and has described the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) as toothless ‘bulldogs’.

“We will end by saying that we support the compilation of the new voters’ register and will support the EC’s decision”, Chairman of the NPP’s campaign team, Peter Mac Manu said in a press conference in Accra.

The NDC has outlined what it says is a plot by the EC Chairperson, Jean Mensah, and the ruling party to rig the December election for President Akufo-Addo.

Party Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo has alleged that “the NPP is desperately scheming to rig the 2020 elections and hold onto power”.

In a rebuttal, Mr Mac Manu said the NDC was just making “ugly noises” to justify their defeat in December.

He said the NDC was kicking against the new register over fear of losing the elections with their candidate, “the incompetent John Mahama”.

“A defeat for the NDC is inevitable so they are making these allegations to prepare the minds of their members,” he scoffed.
