EC’s claim of not disenfranchising SALL residents dishonest – IMANI Africa

IMANI Africa says claims by the Electoral Commission of Ghana (EC) of never disenfranchising SALL residents amount to dishonest and gross incompetence.

The Electoral Commission (EC) has stated that it never disenfranchised the people of Santrokofi, Apkafu, Lolobi, and Lipke (SALL) as alleged by the President of IMANI Africa, Franklin Cudjoe.

The election management body further described the claims as false and urged the public to disregard them.

“It is unfortunate that IMANI continues to peddle falsehood and untruths about the Commission at every point and turn. His [Franklin Cudjoe’s] narrative that the Commission disenfranchised the people of SALL, now the Guan Constituency, is FALSE. We urge the public to verify information put out by IMANI, with the Commission for the truth and the facts.”

However, the IMANI boss has stated that Ghanaians will not allow such gross incompetence to stand in the way of Ghana’s democracy.

“The 14th May 2024 statement of the Electoral Commission is not only brazenly dishonest but puts on stark display to the whole world the gross incompetence of the Jean Mensah -led Electoral Commission.

“I have no doubt that the people of Ghana will not be hoodwinked by the brazen dishonesty of the Electoral Commission nor will they allow such brazen dishonesty and gross incompetence to stand in the way of our democracy. The unconstitutional and illegal actions of the Commission must be constantly exposed for the sake of upholding our democracy and we will not relent in our commitment to doing just that,” Mr. Kudjoe stated.
