The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Fifi Kwetey, has said that the party has no intension of going to court if the EC fails to meet their demands.

According to Fifi Kwetey, the NDC will take the necessary actions if their demands are not met by the Electoral Commission before the ultimatum is due.

“So, please don’t just ask what the NDC is suppose to do. That is why a gentleman mentioned that NPP did something tremendous. So, I was like it is good, tell us what they did. He said they went to court, really? Really went to court? We are not leaving this election to any court,” he said.

He made this statement during the party’s meeting with Civil Society Organisations (CSO’s) recently.

Fifi Kwetey added that he prays the EC agrees to the independent forensic audit demand to avoid the next action from the NDC.

“We are hoping that it does not come to some of the things that we got to do if we ought to do it for the sake of our own country. That is why your voices are critical. That is where the voices of all who love the country become critical," he added.
