Electoral Commission Reacts To Accusations

The Electoral Commission (EC) says the technical lapses associated with Tuesday’s local government elections were due to the complexity and multiplicity of the electoral areas. The elections have been described as a flop and the EC has been condemned for failing to tap its rich experiences in previous elections to make yesterday’s a success. But the Chairman of the Commission, Dr. Kwadwo Afari-Gyan told the Ghana News Agency that “the organisational complexity of local government elections is much greater than the Presidential and Parliamentary elections, hence the unexpected technical hitch leading to the last minute postponement in some districts.”
