NDC flagbearer, John Mahama has said that this year’s elections is the most incompetent ever in the history of Ghana.
Speaking in Voice of America, he noted that the mistakes of the EC is what made the elections incompetent and he hopes that they’ll learn from those flaws and never repeat them again in future.
“This is the most incompetent election we have had. I mean everything about this election does not reach the standards that Ghana’s Electoral Commission has attained for itself. Ghana’s electoral commission is held in high esteem as one of the best electoral commissions unfortunately this election…she can’t even get the results right; the declaration is all over the place,” Mr Mahama said.
John Mahama in the interview called for an independent forensic investigations into the recently held elections.
“If an independent audit is done by the EC, we bring somebody in to crunch the numbers, do an independent audit, if I lost why not? I mean I’ll be the first to concede and walk away.”
He revealed that his party is conducting same on the “flawed” elections indicating the conclusion of the inquiry will determine their next line of action.
“We are currently doing a forensic audit of all the constituencies first to establish what happened there and then secondly to re-confirm the figures that we have. Because this case might end up in court, I don’t know, I cannot mention anything for now, but we are doing an audit, and based on that, we’ll take whatever decision we need to take.
“But I think that the incompetence that the EC has shown, it would be useful for us to do a forensic audit of the EC’s own systems and the numbers to come to what the final number of the EC is. Because as at now I don’t know what number they’re going to gazette,” the former leader said.
