Politician and football administrator, Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe has revealed details of a recent conversation he had with Dr. Charles Mensa, husband of the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Jean Mensa.
Speaking on Starr FM monitored by GhanaWeb on Thursday, August 29, 2024, the medical practitioner and retired military officer, said the husband of the EC Boss, recently called him to discuss how Ghana can keep its peace after the crucial December 7, 2024 general elections.
The former Ghana Ambassador to Serbia and Montenegro disclosed that his simple advice was for the EC Chairperson's husband to tell her to do the right thing.
"The Electoral Commissioner, I know her very well. When I was a kid, I was a pet to her father, Dr. Bluku Allotey. Now, recently, the husband called me, the husband I know very well, Charles Mensa. I met him and it was about how to have peace during this elections. And I told him, let your wife do the right thing.
He is alive, you can ask him.
"Because what is happening right now, if we are not careful and certain things are not put in place, the Electoral Commission will walk us into disaster. Mark my words, there are wrongs going on and the wrongs must be put right. They know it. How can you transfer a whole group of people from a particular place to another place without their knowledge? They can't deny that, and certain methods they are using, if we want peace in this country then we must be serious about it," Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe said.
The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has raised discrepancy issues with the provisional voters register that was recently exhibited, ahead of the 2024 elections,
The party consequently demanded an urgent meeting with the Electoral Commission to address their concerns.
A letter dated Tuesday, August 27, 2024, signed by NDC General Secretary, Fifi Kwetey and addressed to the Electoral Commission stated that the NDC has detected "serious discrepancies" in the provisional voters register.
The NDC is therefore requesting an "urgent" meeting with the EC to address the issues before the voter exhibition exercise concludes.
But the Electoral Commission rubbished the assertion of the NDC insisting that the 2024 Voters’ Register is both robust and credible, urging citizens to disregard claims suggesting otherwise.
