The Director of Elections and IT of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Dr. Edward Omane Boamah is urging supporters of the party to keep an eagle eye on the Electoral Commission and the NPP on the day of voting to avert the possibility of manipulating figures to favour the latter.
As part of strategies to ensure free, fair and peaceful polls, he stated that agents of the party must insist presiding officers paste pink sheets at every polling station as required by C.I 127.
Dr. Omane Boamah was speaking at Otoase in the Ayensuano constituency of Eastern region to garner votes for the NDC and its flagbearer John Mahama.
" On the day of elections, we're going to work with the security agencies to ensure the elections are free, fair and peaceful because we know that once the election is free, fair and peaceful the NDC is winning this election hands down, one touch.
While we collaborate with the security agencies to ensure nobody rigs the elections, just as we did in Assin North, after 3 PM start moving towards the polling station so that by 5 PM, you can monitor the sorting, counting and declaration.
"Make sure you take videos when the counting and sorting is underway, insist that the Presiding Officer paste a copy of the pink sheet at the polling station. If he refuses, tell him the law mandates him to do so but if he doesn't, tell the police officer there that the Presiding Officer is violating the law to support the NPP in rigging," he stated
The former minister of Communications did not end there. He reminded them to take their vigilance to the next level of collation.
"We have told the whole country to take videos at the polling stations, at the constituency collation centres,at the regional capital.
Because Ci 127 dictates this, we want to ask the Electoral Commission, have you distributed 40,600 and glue over to all the potential polling stations that elections will be conducted on December, 7?
If the EC has not done that, they must procure it because the pink sheets must be pasted and the pink sheets will be pasted," he admonished
Dr. Edward Omane Boamah began his five-day community campaign in the Eastern region on Monday.
He is expected to engage party followers, Chiefs and the general populace in a bid to garner votes for the NDC.
