Following the statement issued by the Electoral Commission (EC) that re-collation is not something new, former director of CARE Ghana, David Kumi, says that the EC behaves like God.

According to him, the EC does not take advice, welcome corrections, and thinks every action it takes is correct.

“Whatever the EC is saying doesn’t make sense because you were the same person who said the country no longer practices re-declaration and re-collation. Thus, any candidate who feels cheated should go to court. And you come back to say and do otherwise, then there is no sense in any of her actions,” he stated.

The ex-director also demanded that the EC grant the people of Ghana some wisdom and not insult their intelligence.

“You have done something, and it has gone wayward. Instead of you telling us something we are willing to hear and taking needed actions, you are doing what will please you. What are you trying to tell Ghanaians?” he inquired.

He continued that the independence given to the EC by the constitution makes them misbehave.

“Whatever we say or suggest, they either take it or leave it, whether good or bad.

We advised that lots of people are yet to receive their Ghana Cards, so the idea of it being the only means to vote should not be considered, but the EC chose to once again do what it pleases,” he added.
