EC’s failure to fix its porous IT, statistics outfit deliberate – NDC

Director of IT and Elections for the NDC, Dr Omane Boamah Director of IT and Elections for the NDC, Dr Omane Boamah

Director of IT and Elections for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Dr Omane Boamah has told the Electoral Commission to fix their IT systems.

He is of the view that it is the weakest link at the Commission ahead of the 2024 elections.

Therefore, failure to fix the IT outfit of the organization will be considered a deliberate attempt to fix the elections.

He made this known in a post shared via social media.

Dr Omane Boamah called on all in the National Democratic Congress to stay vigilant because even if the EC fails to fix its IT outfit, elections in Ghana are manual and figures agreed upon at the polling station are what will be transmitted.

Read His Post Below

I submit to you that the IT and Statistics outfits of the Electoral Commission of Ghana remain the weakest links going into the 2024 elections.

Think about the numerous EC’s incorrect figures that the National Elections and IT Directorate of the NDC has corrected over the past few months.

Think about the inappropriate use of CorelDRAW for arithmetic.

Think about the recurring network failures that have afflicted registration exercises.

Failure for the EC to fix these avoidable problems emanating from the EC’s IT and Statistics outfits suggests it’s deliberate.

But they’ll fail!

Our CORRECT figures will always be available to CORRECT the ERRORS of the Electoral Commission.

Folks, don’t be diverted by the ongoing IT transmission fear mongering! Because Ghana’s elections is manual.

If wrong figures are captured at the polling stations or at the collation centres, the same wrong figures will be transmitted, if not CHALLENGED.

Yours is to be vigilant at the Polling Stations and at the collation centres.

Leave the rest to us to battle it out with the EC elegantly and if need be in-elegantly!

Let me assure you: We will collate our results on time every step of the way.

And we shall relay the results to the next line in the chain within record time.

We shall protect your votes!
