The Chairman of the People’s National Convention (PNC) has questioned the ruling National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) silence on the disqualification of some political parties.
According to Bernard Mornah, it creates the impression that NDC agrees with the Electoral Commission in everything it does.
Thirteen political parties were disqualified from contesting the December 7 elections. After the disqualification, the New Patriotic Party issued a statement to sympathise with them; the PNC chairman is wondering why the NDC did not do same.
Contributing to a panel discussion on Radio Gold’s Alhaji and Alhaji, Bernard Mornah said: “this disqualification, you may not take it. The general view is that, ooh the NDC wants these people to be disqualified. Rightly or wrongly it’s seemed that the NDC wants this to be done, and I don’t know what role, the NDC plays in this, you should not take it for granted, and your silence on this disqualification is huge and loud…some political parties have come to sympathize with those that are disqualified. The NDC has been too silent suggesting that they are endorsing the actions of the Electoral Commission and that is not good. And in my party and many that I have come across, they say that this was orchestrated.”
