Demonstrate at every EC office on September 17 – Mahama to NDC supporters

John Dramani Mahama, flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has urged party supporters to go to offices of the Electoral Commission (EC) across the country and demonstrate on September 17.

This follows the party’s announcement to stage a nationwide demonstration on Tuesday, September 17, against the EC over concerns about discrepancies in the voter register.

The National Chairman of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, revealed this during a press briefing after filing the party’s flagbearer, John Mahama’s, nomination forms for the upcoming 2024 general elections.

Mr Mahama addressing supporters at Sampa in the Jaman North District of the Bono Region, urged them to pressurise the EC officials into doing their jobs right and addressing the party’s concerns to ensure free and fair elections in December.

“If we desire for free, fair, and peaceful elections, then the EC must up their game and do things right. So on the 17th of this month [September], NDC is going to demonstrate in every town that has an EC office. Our chairman [Johnson Asiedu Nketiah] has announced it.”

“NDC [supporters], you wear your t-shirts, and you go and demonstrate at the EC office so that we can put pressure on them to do their job and do what they have to do to ensure a peaceful and transparent election,” Mr. Mahama stated.
