Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Vice Presidential Candidate of the NPP, on Tuesday expressed disappointment at the manner in which the NDC allegedly rigged the 2012 general elections and thereby denied the party of victory.

He said the last few days after the elections had been a very sad moment in the history of the party and the National Executive Committee of the party had decided to petition the Supreme Court on the matter.

Kwadwo Owusu-Afriyie, NPP General Secretary, said the party would not allow anyone to cheat and had begun process to taking the case to court.

He said though members of the party had received credible information that the National Security and the Police had started meeting on how they could arrest executives of the party, they would not relent until Nana Akufo-Addo has been declared the president of the country.

Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, Member of Parliament for Assin North, appealed to supporters of the party not to take the law into their own hands and be violent.

He said the party worked very hard and should have won the elections adding that it was very sad that things had turned out in this manner.
