The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Frimpong Kodua, has warned against any attempts to manipulate the results of the parliamentary elections.
Addressing a press conference on Sunday evening, he called on the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, to maintain law and order at collation centers across the country.
Justin Kodua accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of instigating chaos at collation centers in constituencies where, according to him, the NPP had clearly won.
“Indeed, data that made our flag bearer concede this morning shows clearly that the NPP has won the constituencies I've mentioned. But the NDC, knowing very well that they have lost these seats to the NPP, are unwilling to accept their fate and are desperately seeking to compel the EC to do their bidding,” he stated.
The NPP General Secretary condemned the acts of violence attributed to NDC supporters and stressed that his party would not tolerate any attempts to tamper with the election results.
“We vehemently condemn these attacks and are serving notice that we shall resist every attempt to temper the results of the parliamentary elections in these constituencies,” he warned.
Calling on the IGP to act swiftly, Mr Kodua reminded him of his promise to ensure free, fair, and transparent elections.
“Mr. IGP, you made a promise to political parties on two different occasions when we met you at your office, and your words were unambiguous—that you’ll see to it that we have free, fair, and transparent elections,” he said.
He urged the IGP to protect the rights and safety of citizens at the collation centers and to prevent any illegal intimidation.
Mr Kodua also appealed to the NDC leadership to call their supporters to order and condemn the acts of violence.
